Welcome to SiGMA Asia 2025
Following our milestone anniversary, the SiGMA Group is excited to enter the next phase of growth. With the stage set to build on our successes, SiGMA is set to deliver an even more impactful event. We are also immensely grateful to be supported by key players in the development of the country’s gaming and tech arena, particularly PAGCOR.
This year our expo also welcomes an increased presence from the landbased industry. Our double decker expo floor cultivates the perfect climate for delegates to engage in a variety of pan-vertical opportunities that span both the online and offline industries. Meanwhile our land-based retreat delivers high-level networking – fostering key discussions.
SiGMA has also been instrumental in pushing sustainable, regulated gaming forward. Through our ESG efforts and good works carried out by the SiGMA Foundation, we hope to continue to drive change through meaningful action, leveraging our global reach and influence to empower, educate and inspire.
Looking ahead, our global mission continues with an exciting lineup of international events, including the launch of new shows in Rome, Colombo - and in 2026 - Mexico City.
It’s my absolute pleasure to welcome you to SiGMA Asia, taking place in the heart of Manila, The Philippines, from June 1st to 4th, 2025. As Head of Conference, I am incredibly proud to help bring together the top minds and most exciting innovators in the world of gaming, regulation, affiliation, and emerging tech under one roof.
Asia is one of the fastest-growing regions in the global gaming space, and Manila stands at the forefront of this exciting momentum. This year’s summit is a testament to the region’s boundless potential and to the dynamic, ever-evolving industry we are all part of.
As Steve Jobs once said, “The art of innovation is not about being first, it’s about being different. It’s not about being the best, it’s about being better. And it’s not about technology, it’s about the way we think.”
That spirit of creativity, disruption, and bold thinking is what defines SiGMA Asia. Over the days, you will experience a powerhouse agenda filled with industry-leading keynotes, in-depth panel discussions, and handson workshops. From game development and compliance to affiliate marketing, eSports, and AI integration, we are covering every corner of this dynamic industry.
You will also get to explore a buzzing expo floor, showcasing cutting-edge solutions, services, and technologies that are reshaping the gaming landscape, not just in Asia, but globally.
And of course, it wouldn’t be SiGMA without the connections. We have curated exceptional networking opportunities to ensure you leave Manila with not just new ideas, but new partners, collaborators, and friends.
So, whether you’re here to learn, invest, partner, or be inspired - welcome. Let’s shape the future of gaming together.
