Editor's corner

We have a good and diverse selection of articles in this issue that predominately focus on the disruptions occurring to the out-of-home entertainment landscape. We live in a world of fast occurring change. All consumer-facing businesses, including location-based entertainment venues, need to stay on top of the changes so they can evolve to stay relevant to the shifting consumer leisure culture and preferences.

There's a lot to read and digest in this issue. We hope you find it of value whether you are planning to open a new out-of-home leisure or entertainment venue or you currently operate one.

Also, don't forget to follow me on Twitter (twitter.com/ whitehutchinson) or Linkedin (www.linkedin.com/ in/ randywhitewhitehutchinson/ ) where a post news and articles relevant to the community leisure venue industry.
