Travel and tourism is a booming sector of the national economy - no more so than in Southern Nevada. The Las Vegas Valley welcomes more than 36 million visitors each year, and the hospitality sector accounts for more than 30 percent of the region's economic base.

Nevada, however, is no longer merely a rouge gambling state. The city has become a multifaceted entertainment destination, evolving to make retail, entertainment, recreation and dining major components and attractions.

The success of gaming in Nevada has encouraged other jurisdictions to legalize the once stigmatized pastime. While this provides additional expansion opportunities for gaming operators, it also increases the potential for competition. Moreover, in June of 2001, the Nevada Legislature passed the Internet Gaming Initiative, which may spark the next wave of industry change.
