Chief heads to London for annual e-gaming conference

02/01/2013

The Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke would like to inform the community that Gaming Portfolio Chief Gina Deer will be traveling to London, England to attend the annual International Gaming Exposition (commonly known as the �ICE Show�) which is the world�s largest e-gaming event.

The ICE Show is a combination conference and trade show in which the world leaders in the on-line gaming industry converge to network with clients, regulators and testing agencies.

�It�s important that we maintain our presence at this important event,� said Gaming Portfolio Chief Gina Deer. �There are many challenges to be faced, especially politically � and we�d rather face them straight on. My role next week will be to help reassure clients and other regulators that we�re firmly maintaining our role as an industry leader.�

Since 1998, Mohawk Internet Technologies and, later, Continent 8 Technologies, have combined to provide services to the on-line gaming industry. Mohawk Internet technologies, 100% owned by the Mohawks of Kahnaw�:ke, is a partner to Continent 8 technologies, in which Kahnaw�:ke maintains a 40% share.

In 2011 Continent 8 Technologies was awarded the prestigious �Technology Supplier of the Year� at the International Gaming Awards, which are part of the ICE Show. This year�s event takes place from 5 to 7 Enn�ska/February. Due to the nature of international travel, Chief Deer will be out of the office for the entire week and will return to the office on 11 Enn�ska/February.
