Why You Should Attend the SIGMA Conference  

This year, the SIGMA Europe Summit echoed throughout Malta, turning the island into the center of the gambling industry for a week. Networking events, dinners, and parties took place in the finest places, and the conference itself occupied three massive port hangars. Hundreds of booths and thousands of participants fueled the energy throughout all the days. Moreover, we met with dearest partners and made new interesting acquaintances.

So, what were the main pros of the conference?

  • Communication: The opportunity to discuss collaboration face-to-face, and confirm partnerships with a handshake, in today's fast-paced life, is priceless. Thanks to the conference, it's much easier to discuss burning issues not in dry messages but in a pleasant conversation over a cup of coffee.
  • Diversity: The conference brought together all representatives of the gambling industry. It's easy to meet the company owner, designer, payment manager, and affiliate all at one table, discussing the latest industry news.
  • Organization: Zoning by B2B and B2C sectors simplified the search for necessary representatives and opened up the full scale of the i-gaming industry to newcomers.
  • Innovation: Where else to familiarize yourself with the latest developments and solutions if not at the conference? Giant LED screens, casino simulators, and helper robots here look commonplace rather than something super-technological.
  • Practicality: In addition to meetings, news, and gossip, the SIGMA Europe Summit offered an extensive workshop program, discussions from opinion leaders, and startup pitching. Conference participants were the first to learn about the use of AI in affiliate marketing and release dates of new projects.
  • Scale: On the MMH Malta LTD premises, the mix of the port and gambling is breathtaking. No one could have thought that a massive port crane would become a symbol of the mightiness of the SIGMA Summit.

Drawbacks and How to Avoid Them?

  • Communication: This is both a plus and a minus. Many participants are not ready to engage for various reasons. But believe me, it's always worth dedicating time to new proposals and getting to know managers. There are no needless connections at conferences. Even if the partner program offers offers not in your geo, keep contacts. In a month or two, they may be relevant to you.
  • Location: The territory is vast! You can go around all the booths in an hour, but you'll tire quickly. Be prepared to walk a lot, stand, drink, collect merchandise and gifts. To avoid this drawback spoiling the experience, choose comfort between shoes and sneakers.
  • Transport Collapse: Calling a taxi from the conference to the hotel is a real challenge. The best solution is to embrace the relaxed vibe of Malta and enjoy the warmth while the taxi driver navigates through kilometers of traffic jams.

Conclusion

For our team, the conference passed like a single day. It was incredibly pleasant to meet old friends and get to know new players in the market. All three days of the conference were intense and exhausting, but the aftertaste of the meetings remained pleasant and inspiring.

If you're still hesitant, whether the game is worth the candle — totally, yes! To be on the same wave with the industry leaders, active participation in SIGMA conferences is simply essential.

We know that many couldn't attend the conference but would like to discuss new proposals. So, don't hesitate to write to your manager or our support at:
