For immediate release
Vienna, 05.03.2007 --- Casinos Austria International (CAI) will again be promoting its worldwide casino network at the ITB show in Berlin from 7 - 11 March 2007.
The highly popular Casinos Austria Charity Roulette table will once again feature prominently on the stand on the days when the ITB is open to the general public (10 - 11 March) and will be complemented by further gaming entertainment throughout the entire event at a new Blackjack table. Professional croupiers from casinos in Croatia, Denmark, Germany and Austria will be on hand throughout the show to take charge of the tables and reinforce our extensive international presence.
With 10,000 exhibitors from 180 countries and regions, ITB Berlin is the world's premier fair for the tourism and leisure industries, attracting visitors, travel industry professionals and journalists from all around the globe. Casinos Austria has strong links with this unique international event and has been an exhibitor in Berlin for the last 18 years. ITB Berlin 2007 is no exception, and we look forward to welcoming you to our booth on the Austria Pavilion in Hall 17.
"One of the main goals of our participation at the ITB is to actively promote each and every one of our currently 72 casinos around the globe in the tourist industry," said Casinos Austria International CEO Paul Herzfeld. "Casinos make extremely valuable contributions to tourism in their host communities. Casinos Austria International works closely with local, national and international tourist boards to create valuable infrastructures that include hotels, congress and banquet facilities, bars, restaurants and shops, as well as cultural events, shows and exhibitions. These attract new visitors and produce key synergy effects for the local tourism and leisure industries," he added.
