In addition to keynote speaker René Higuita, Colombian motor racing talent Tatiana Calderón will also take the stage to discuss the transformative potential of collaboratio and Iraja Abreu (Senator, Province of Toncantins) will outline the key steps and regulatory requirements for operators and stakeholders to apply for and secure land-based casino licenses in Brazil.

The exhibition will bring together over 70 leading regional and international brands from various sectors, including key players such as Altenar, Aviatrix, BetConstruct, Betcris, Better Collective, Digitain, EveryMatrix, Evolution, Fast Track, iGP, Kaizen Gaming, Logifuture, OKTO, Pragmatic Play, and Sportingtech, among others.

Networking will remain a top priority at SBC Summit Latinoamérica, with multiple opportunities to build connections during the day on the expo floor and through exclusive evening events. The summit will open on Tuesday with a spectacular Opening Party at the DAER Day Club. Wednesday’s networking highlight is the Official Party at Chase Stadium, with the week culminating in the Spooky Closing Party at Entice Nightclub on Thursday.

Rasmus Sojmark, CEO & Founder of SBC, said: “We are thrilled to bring together such a remarkable lineup of speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, and attendees for the final edition of SBC Summit Latinoamérica at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. This year’s event, with over 4,000 industry professionals, truly reflects the tremendous growth and innovation shaping the Latin American sports betting and iGaming markets. It’s a testament to the region's increasing influence on the global stage, and we are proud to provide a platform where leaders can share insights, forge new partnerships, and showcase the latest advancements in technology, products, and services.”

As the Latin American online gambling market continues to expand, SBC Summit Latinoamérica will provide the perfect setting to capitalize on this booming sector. The event will focus on addressing key challenges like regulatory shifts and opportunities like market expansion, drawing input from regulators, operators, affiliates, suppliers, and industry associations across LATAM.

With over 1,300 operator representatives attending, including 43% senior decision-makers, this event promises to be an unparalleled platform for fostering partnerships and gaining insight into the region’s growth potential.
