SiGMA’s Largest Event Yet: 30,000 Delegates Expected from Four Verticals in Rome

This year's edition brings four major verticals together under one roof. SiGMA will cover gaming, AIBC will focus on AI, blockchain and crypto, FX World will bring together brokers, fintech and payments businesses, while Affiliate Grand Slam (AGS) will represent the global affiliate industry.

One event badge will give attendees access to all four shows, bringing operators, suppliers, investors, affiliates, regulators and technology companies into the same space. The cross-pollination of these verticals makes SiGMA Rome the single most interesting event not to be missed.

Nine Halls, Four Verticals and Over 1,200 Exhibitors

The event will cover 100,000 sqm across nine halls at Fiera Roma, with different colours helping visitors navigate the exhibition.

The red zone will host SiGMA B2B suppliers across Halls 4 and 6, including EGT, Amusement, NOVOMATIC, SOFTSWISS and Tequity, among others.

The lemon zone will focus on SiGMA B2C, with operator brands such as 1xBet, Melbet and Spribe located around the Main Stage in Halls 1 and 3.

Affiliate Grand Slam will occupy the orange zone in Hall 2, with its own conference stage. AIBC and FX World will take over the blue zone across Halls 7 and 8, while Hall 5 will feature a mix of exhibitors.

FX World will also bring financial industry names including XM.com, eToro, ATFX, Plus500 and Finery Markets.

Across the event, organisers expect more than 1,200 sponsors and exhibitors, alongside 550 speakers across five stages and three startup pitch competitions.

Regulated Gaming, Finance and Technology on the Agenda

The conference agenda will cover developments across gaming, finance, AI, blockchain and digital markets.

Under the theme "Advancing Regulated Gaming," SiGMA World will also bring together around 65 regulators to discuss the industry's changing regulatory landscape.

Futurist and author Brett King is among the keynote speakers and will discuss autonomous banking and the future of financial services.

The agenda will also feature startup pitch competitions, giving emerging companies opportunities to present their businesses to investors and industry leaders.

Conference Stages, Padel Courts, Go-Karting & more

Beyond the exhibition and conference programme, SiGMA World 2026 has several activities planned throughout the week.

Hall 9 will feature a dedicated padel court, hosting the Press Padel Tour, Bloko Padel Tour final and SiGMA Super Cup between 3 and 5 November.

SOFTSWISS will also bring a go-kart track to the venue for the SiGMA Grand Prix.

Other activities include a golf day, networking dinners, VIP lounges and four awards nights featuring charity auctions.

Attendees will also be able to arrange meetings through SiGMA Match, the event's business networking platform.

With approximately 85% of attendees expected to travel from outside Italy, the programme is designed to give international visitors multiple opportunities to meet and connect throughout the week.

All Roads Lead to Rome

"All roads lead to Rome," said Eman Pulis, founder of SiGMA Group.

"Operators, affiliates, suppliers, regulators, prediction markets, sweepstakes, trading, blockchain, crypto, fintech and digital marketing come together from 2 to 5 November. SiGMA World is about advancing regulated gaming."

Rome marks SiGMA's sixth event of 2026, following editions in Dubai, São Paulo, Manila, Cape Town and Mexico City.

It is also expected to be the group's largest event to date, bringing together the international networks developed across its regional shows.

Following Rome, SiGMA will conclude its 2026 calendar with SiGMA South Asia in Colombo from 30 November to 2 December.
