\"globalThe Global Poker Index (GPI)<\/a> started out as a website that offered an innovative ranking system which rated poker players from around the world. <\/p>\n

Since then the company under the leadership of its chief executive officer Alex Dreyfus has come up with a number of unique promotions, events and awards that has established the GPI as one of the premier brands in the global poker industry.<\/p>\n

There have been reports that top executives from iPoker, MPN, partypoker and 888poker<\/a><\/strong> will be attending the event along with the head of poker from Unibet. <\/p>\n

Amaya has also not confirmed if it will be sending representatives from the PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker brands<\/strong>. The GPI is yet to release an official list of these top executives who will be present for the closed door meeting in London.<\/p>\n

One of the key objectives of the meeting is to get these key players in the industry to sit down and come up with a unique strategy that will help speed up the growth of poker across the world and create a much bigger client base for all involved. This closed door by invitation only event will probably be conducted like a high-level mastermind where the best ideas get fast tracked for the benefit of the global poker community.<\/p>\n

GPI CEO Alex Dreyfus<\/strong> made a statement earlier this year saying <\/p>\n

We, the GPI, want to \u2018sportify<\/em>\u2018 poker. This does not mean that we want to make poker a sport, but that we want to use the same logic that runs behind the sports industry to promote poker. If we want to serve poker-related content to the media on a weekly basis, and if we want people to talk about poker, we need to build a platform \u2014 a league that will give everyone a reason to be engaged and interested in the game.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The GPI has also tried in the past to bring the leading poker companies together to achieve a common objective. The company has organized poker conferences in Malta, San Francisco and London<\/strong> having a number of panel discussions and knowledge sharing seminars. The GPI will also promote its unique Global Poker League<\/a> which is being promoted as the world cup of Poker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
