SOME Quotes

The sustainable future of gaming

Everything you need to know about the gaming industry in Italy is here. Ige – Italian Gaming Expo is the event representing the Italian public gaming industry with two days of in-depth analysis on all aspects interesting the stackholders of one of the most important gaming markets in Europe and in the world. Right around the time (and is not coincidence) that Government and Parliament started the reform process that will lead to the birth of a new sector, through the rewriting of the rules governing it, and the issuing of tenders for the renewal of all concessions.

So, Ige looks to the future of gaming in Italy: a future that wants and must be fully sustainable. This is in fact the challenge that concerns all interested parties in the sector reform process. Not only industry but also politics, institutions, regulators. For this reason, all the topics of interest and trends for the market will be adressed and explored in depth within the two days dedicated to the gaming sector.

In addition to exploring all gaming verticals (land-based, igaming, sports betting, casino, horse racing, esports, etc.), all trending and topical issues affecting the sector will be analysed: from Esg in gaming to inclusion, gender equality, talent acquisition and Hr development to the reputation of the industry, without of course forgetting business dynamics, such as those relating to technological and digital evolution (from new payment systems to the use of artificial intelligence , virtual and augmented reality, passing through cryptocurrencies, Nft and Metaverso), to the use of affiliations, cybersecurity in gaming, the fight against matchfixing and much more.
For an event that promises to inspire the industry and its employees, and not just to inform.

Description of the event

Italy is home to many of the strongest and most innovative companies of the sector and the Italian market has often developed new approaches to adapt to an evolving regulatory landscape, most recently with the introduction of strict limitations placed on advertising and promotion of betting and games operators.

The event will bring together the most influential decision makers and experts on the Italian market, who will share their views on the evolving challenges in the evolving regulatory framework, key factors for success in Italy, innovations in games and services development, as well as anticipate the new era of the online and retail market, after the great upheaval of recent years and in view of the next reforms.

Italian Gaming Expo will feature conference sessions, workshops/roundtables, one-on-one networking and product showcases in Italian, with all sessions available with live translations into English for international audience.
Speakers will include industry representatives and experts, members of Government and Parliament, institutions, regulators, authorities and law enforcement agencies gravitating around gaming world.

"2024 will be a strategic year for the Italian Gaming industry, with a reform process initiated by the Legislator and an entire system of rules to be rewritten to arrive at the definition of new tenders".
