The ever-popular eClub hosted their third event on Thursday 21 July. The eClub is a social meeting place for anyone involved with eGaming on the Isle of Man. The initiative was started by KPMG and Continent 8 to bring the growing number of people working in this sector together in one place and start building lasting relationships. The event was sponsored by Island-based gaming consultancy provider, Vont and online poker affiliate giant PokerNews. The party which commenced at 6pm at the Courthouse Club featured a blackjack table where guests got the chance to learn blackjack and play for fun in a tournament-style setting with winners of each round receiving a set of Vont/PokerNews engraved shot glasses. There was a vibrant atmosphere as guests enjoyed activities and socialised with old friends and met new acquaintances. CEO of Vont, Jon Sykes reflected on the event: “We are so pleased to have been sponsors of the eClub this summer. Vont and PokerNews are two Isle of Man based entities that have benefitted from the Island’s reputation as a highly regulated offshore centre for gaming. Being involved in the eClub is a great way to catch up with existing clients and establish new contacts in a laid back environment. The eClub has always been a fun and exciting event and this party proved no different. I’d encourage anyone with an interest to get involved. You won’t be disappointed!” For regular updates and to get involved in the eClub, visit www.facebook.com/IsleofManeClub or join the group ‘Isle of Man eClub’ on LinkedIn. -END-
