About the event
SiGMA World is an annual gaming conference and exhibition. In 2026, it moves to Rome. The edition expects 30,000 attendees, 550 speakers across four stages, and 1,200-plus sponsors and exhibitors.
The main programme runs from November 3 to 5. November 2 brings pre-conference activities: registration, a welcome reception, and a padel tournament. Three award ceremonies are on the schedule. SiGMA B2B Awards, SiGMA B2C Awards, and AGS Awards are running on November 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Two startup pitch competitions also feature.
The move to Italy in 2026 is not accidental. The country’s online gambling market brought in €2.89 billion in 2024. It might grow to €3.78 billion by 2029.
