On-demand broadcast previews contributions from C-List cast of thought-leaders, policy makers and politicians

Clarion Gaming has recruited award-winning international broadcaster and former Financial Times journalist Nadine Dereza to preview the ICE VOX programme of speakers and content taking place in February. Fresh from presenting for CNBC, the world's number one business and financial news network, Nadine joined Clarion's global content director, Robin Harrison to discuss the world's number 1 gaming conference in a special half-hour broadcast that's available on-demand at ICE London.
