The approval of the Bill and the progress of the regulation of sports betting in the 2nd BOGEC will be under debate. The impact of these approvals could bring more than US$ 70 billion to the Brazilian economy, and the tourism/hospitality sector will be the sector with the greatest impact, with casinos integrated into resorts, tourist casinos, bingos, online casinos, sports bars with sports betting and even lottery houses.
The Brazilian hotel market has approximately 580,000 rooms in 35,000 accommodation facilities, employs more than 250,000 professionals directly and has a projected occupancy growth of 7% in 2023. Brazil has an internal flow of more than 50 million tourists, employing more than 10% of the workforce and has a direct impact of 12% on the economy of our country.
In this contest, the BOGEC Congress will bring great icons from the hospitality, gaming, tourism, and government markets, to present and discuss these opportunities:
? Bill 442/91, approved by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate Justice Commission, about to be voted on.
? How the hotel industry and the tourist trade will be able to participate in the casino, gaming and sports betting market.
? Enhancement of tourist destinations with the approval of games and casinos in Brazil; what are the impacts of increased demand, legislation on state and federal tourist districts; the interaction with tourist attractions, the generation of work and income and tourist currency.
