Australia\u2019s Department of Health has taken an aggressive stance in light of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak in the country, extending the NSW lockdown indefinitely. This has left the Australasian Gaming Expo (AGE)<\/a> organisers with no choice but to postpone the event.<\/p>\n

Chris Muir, the CEO of the Gaming Technologies Association (GTA), that organises the AGE said,<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven the proximity to the AGE, border closures, and the unknown restrictions of the government\u2019s \u2018roadmap\u2019 out of lockdown, we needed to act now. We have not forgotten the heightened risk that this Delta variant poses for everyone at this time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The GTA and its intended venue, the ICC Sydney, explored the possibility of alternative dates for the event, but due to the sheer scale of the expo, no 2021 dates could be finalised.<\/p>\n

The 31st AGE will now take place from 9 to 11 August 2022 and while some exhibitors have expressed disappointment at the postponement, many are still eager to showcase their new products<\/a>, services, and innovations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen significant initiatives from AGE exhibitors over the last eighteen months as they support businesses with technology and physical distancing measures and we\u2019ll continue to connect buyers with sellers as our industry once again begins its road-to-recovery,\u201d Muir concluded.\u200b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
