SAN DIEGO, CA – Andrew Cardno, Co-Founder and CTO of Quick Custom Intelligence (QCI), will be a featured speaker at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) 2025 in Las Vegas.

The panel will address one of the most debated topics in gaming: how many leased or shared revenue games should be included on the casino floor. As casinos adapt to changing trends in floor design, panelists will share strategies for balancing revenue optimization with player engagement and long-term satisfaction.

Panelists will include: Buddy Frank – Owner/Consultant, BF Slot Strategies; Nick Hogan – Co-Founder & CEO, ReelMetrics; Andrew Cardno – Co-Founder & CTO, Quick Custom Intelligence; Stephanie Lau – VP, Sales Enablement, Konami Gaming; and rRyan Scott – VP of Commercial Strategy – Slots, Light & Wonder.

“The question of floor mix is both mathematical and strategic,” said Cardno. “Our work at QCI has shown that data-driven insights – when paired with operator experience – can dramatically impact both revenue and guest experience. I’m honored to join such a distinguished panel to explore the future of slot floor optimization.”

“From a financial and operational perspective, the composition of the casino floor is one of the most critical decisions we make,” said Dennis Amos, CFO of Sky City Acoma. “The right balance between owned and participation games directly impacts revenue, costs, and ultimately, the long-term sustainability of our operations. This panel’s discussion will provide invaluable insights for operators striving to make data-informed, profitable decisions.”
