Spain's gaming hall sector has delivered resounding approval for ANESAR's flagship annual event, with post-congress satisfaction surveys revealing exceptional scores across all measured criteria.
The 13º Congreso de Salones de Juego ANESAR, held on 14 May at Madrid's Auditorio de la Mutua Madrileña under the theme "El juego en positivo, un compromiso que nos une" (Positive gaming, a commitment that unites us), has generated overwhelmingly positive attendee feedback following a comprehensive evaluation survey.
Survey Results Highlight Operational Excellence
ANESAR's post-event assessment reveals that the vast majority of respondents rated the following aspects as excellent or very good: the overall event experience, venue selection, event organisation including attendee information systems, staff courtesy, and registration processes.
Additional areas receiving predominantly excellent, very good, or good ratings included the content quality of roundtable discussions, the presentation by ANESAR Secretary General Juan Lacarra, the selection of Carlos Andreu as keynote speaker and his presentation content, catering services, and networking opportunities generated throughout the day.
Survey Methodology
While ANESAR has not disclosed the total number of survey respondents or response rate methodology, the comprehensive evaluation covered nine distinct operational categories including venue logistics, content quality, and networking effectiveness. This multi-dimensional approach provides gaming hall operators with a template for evaluating their own industry events.
Perfect Attendance Commitment for Future Events
Perhaps most significantly for ANESAR's strategic planning, the survey revealed unanimous intention among respondents to participate in future congresses. 100% of survey participants confirmed their commitment to attending the next ANESAR Congress, providing clear validation of the organisation's event management approach and content strategy.
This perfect retention rate reflects both the quality of the current event format and the sustained engagement within Spain's gaming hall community, as ANESAR begins preparation for the next edition.
Strategic Value for Sector Development
The exceptional satisfaction scores underscore ANESAR's role in facilitating meaningful industry dialogue within Spain's regulated gaming environment. The combination of high-quality content delivery, effective networking facilitation, and operational excellence positions the annual congress as an essential calendar fixture for gaming hall operators and stakeholders.
The unanimous commitment to future attendance suggests ANESAR has successfully identified the format and content mix that resonates with sector participants, providing a stable foundation for continued industry development initiatives and policy discussions. This success follows ANESAR's broader advocacy efforts to reshape industry discourse and promote positive gaming values.
Based on ANESAR's evaluation framework, key metrics include venue selection effectiveness, registration process efficiency, staff courtesy levels, content quality assessment, and networking opportunity generation. The source does not disclose specific measurement scales, but operators should establish baseline metrics before implementation.
The 100% future attendance commitment provides ANESAR with predictable revenue forecasting and sponsorship value propositions for the next congress. However, the source does not reveal current event pricing or sponsorship revenue models that other associations could benchmark against.
While ANESAR operates within Spain's regulated gaming environment, the source does not specify whether content discussions included regulatory compliance topics or cross-border policy implications. Gaming associations in different jurisdictions should evaluate local regulatory requirements before adopting similar formats.
