History of the CEC
The CEC was started seven years ago by the Fox brothers, Ari and Ben Fox, to teach and integrate the gambling and esports industries to pave the future for the brick-and-mortar and online casino market. Today the CEC has expanded its education conferences to include Web 3, NFTs, the Metaverse, Immersive experiences, and VR.AR and MR, among other topics. These subjects are presented by people within these fields to the casino industry to educate and share ideas with those outside the casino industry. This helps enlighten the gambling industry about the possibilities of what the CEC calls Techtainment. These expansive discussions are taught at the annual Las Vegas CEC, held from February 27 to March 1, 2023, at Alexis Park in Las Vegas. The CEC/EIC is a newer summit focusing on esports.
