It is time to start making plans; the Online Bingo Summit will be upon us again in no time at all. If you are thinking about climbing aboard this still snowballing industry, then the summit is the place to be in June. This is the 6th annual conference of its kind, will be held at the Victoria Park Plaza Hotel, London from June 1st to 2nd, and anyone who is anyone in this industry will be there. They get together once a year stay updated and update others on changing and continuing trends as this massive online gambling space continues to grow and thrive.

This year the summit is taking place slightly later than usual – it is normally held earlier in the year and fewer presentations will take place. The changes to the normally busy schedule have been made to accommodate more networking opportunities for delegates. Twenty of the most prominent and successful online bingo operators world-wide will be making presentations to the audience, and sharing their opinions and observations regarding the future of growth. A valuable networking experience for players in an industry where it matters about who you know, almost as much as what you know!

The online bingo industry started off in the United States but has actually evolved into a true example of the word "industry" in the UK – there are now hundreds of sites, catering to millions of players. Online bingo efforts in the US were essentially nipped in the bud in 2006 with the promulgation of UIGEA, however, even by that stage, UK online bingo sites had started to evolve into something special – resembling what we have as a product today, while US sites were really rather ordinary. The few US online bingo sites which remain operating today, have taken on various UK-type features and some even offer 90 ball bingo. The UK is now the centre of the Universe for online bingo innovations.

The popularity of these games and the industry is growing as more European countries deregulate their online gambling markets. This growing popularity has spread to Spain France and Italy. As the laws change and the industry becomes better regulated it will obviously spread even more. Bingo sites are already available in Spanish and the premise for this is not only for players in Spain; online bingo is essentially bingo without borders and there are many Spanish speaking countries.

The French market has opened up to online poker – there was a massive uptake for licenses for this form of gambling last year and Italy has adapted its laws to the benefit of poker operators too. It is only a matter of time for an online bingo footprint to make its mark. Not for a moment do we doubt that these market places will also be up for discussion at the online bingo summit in London. Chances are they may even be turning their eyes to the US, where it is hoped that online gambling markets will open up once again.
