SiGMA World 2027: Rome event moved to May

SiGMA Group has announced that the SiGMA World 2027 edition in Rome will be moved to May, following feedback from clients, exhibitors, and industry partners who are calling for a more balanced European events calendar. The decision reflects a clear market demand: the industry wants Europe’s three largest iGaming events to be spread out more evenly throughout the year. By moving the Rome edition to May, the goal is to establish intervals of approximately four months between the three events held in Rome, Barcelona, and Lisbon. This will give companies more time to prepare, plan their budgets, strengthen relationships with clients, and maximize the return on their participation. Commenting on the change, SiGMA Group founder Eman Pulis stated: “We listened to the industry and made the bold decision to move our event to May. This decision was made with the best interests of the industry in mind.” See the full message below. Addressing the industry’s needs The change is part of a broader commitment to reduce event overload and create a more predictable calendar for the global gaming industry. With an ever-growing number of conferences and exhibitions competing for attention, we believe that longer intervals between major events will benefit exhibitors, sponsors, attendees, and the industry as a whole. Our clients and partners have been clear about their needs: a more balanced calendar that allows enough time for preparation, participation, and getting real value out of each event. We want every conference to be a truly significant occasion, not just another date on an already crowded calendar. A more balanced calendar benefits everyone, but achieving this goal requires organizers to be willing to adapt. We decided to take this step by moving the Rome edition to May and putting the needs of our clients and the entire industry first. An even bigger festival experience in Rome The move to May will also allow us to take advantage of more favorable weather conditions and significantly expand the event’s outdoor setup in Rome. Our goal is to triple the outdoor area by 2027, creating a much bigger festival atmosphere, with more space for networking, entertainment, hospitality, and opportunities for attendees to connect. The expanded format will bring together business, networking, and entertainment on an even larger scale, reinforcing SiGMA World’s position as one of the gaming industry’s leading international gatherings. A more strategic global events calendar These changes are part of a broader strategy to make our international events more efficient, well-positioned, and valuable for participating companies. Rather than adding to an already overloaded calendar, we are focused on creating the ideal conditions for each event to attract a larger audience, offer better networking opportunities, and generate stronger business results. The goal is simple: better-spaced events, improved experiences, and greater impact for clients, partners, and the industry as a whole. Other changes to the World Tour 2027 As part of this broader calendar review, we are also evaluating the dates of other international events to ensure they align with market developments and industry needs. The full SiGMA World Tour 2027 calendar will be announced soon. O post SiGMA World 2027: Rome event moved to May apareceu primeiro em iGaming Brazil.
