The most widely read and respected B2B gaming-media brand in the United States, CDC Gaming Reports, today announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Inside Asian Gaming. As of Monday, March 16, the organizations will share regular content in their daily industry newsletters in North America and Asia.
CDC’s popular Last Call e-newsletter will provide the latest news from Asia, courtesy of a new Inside Asian Gaming-branded section. Likewise, IAG’s daily e-newsletter, Breakfast Briefing, will feature a new section linking to the most important news stories of the day from the North American gaming industry, as written by CDC.
Last Call hits inboxes at 1 p.m. Las Vegas time (4 a.m. in Macau, 5 a.m. outside of Daylight Savings Time). The English-language version of IAG Breakfast Briefing is published at 4 p.m. in Las Vegas (7 a.m. in Macau, 8 a.m. outside of Daylight Savings Time) every weekday.
Select CDC articles will also appear in the traditional Chinese-language version of IAG Breakfast Briefing, published at 11 a.m. every Macau business day (three hours after the English-language version), as well as the Japanese-language version of IAG Daily Briefing, published at midday Tokyo time every Japan business day (also three hours after the English language version).
By combining resources and sharing content, CDC and IAG will provide their respective readers with a more diverse and comprehensive coverage of the global gaming industry.
CDC and IAG first announced a strategic partnership agreement in April 2019 and have since worked closely in the sharing of key contacts and information, as well as cooperating during major industry trade shows and events, such as G2E Asia, ICE London and Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas.
A CDC feed of the latest industry news from North America can be found on the IAG homepage at www.asgam.com. IAG also supplies a daily feed of Asian gaming-industry news to a designated section on the homepage of the CDC Gaming Reports website at www.cdcgamingreports.com.
“We knew we had discovered our Asian counterpart when we met the Inside Asian Gaming team at G2E 2018,” said CDC Gaming Reports Associate Publisher, Cory Roberts. “IAG’s ambition for quality and timely reporting, along with a strong sense of individual writers and commentators, parallels ours across the Pacific. With this new closer partnership, our readers can expect to receive a higher quality and more focused coverage of the Asian market.”
“In the nearly 12 months since first announcing our strategic partnership, it has become apparent that Inside Asian Gaming and CDC Gaming Reports share many synergies in both our approach to business and passion for keeping the industry informed,” said Inside Asian Gaming Managing Editor, Ben Blaschke. “It seems only natural that we take our relationship to the next level by launching new avenues through which to share high-quality content, further broadening the reach of both organizations and providing even more for our readers.”
