(Madrid).- The organizers of the 10th Ibero-American Gaming Summit announce that registration is about to close with only a few days left before the event. The meeting, consolidated as the most important debate and networking forum in the region for the industry, will take place on May 5–6, 2026 at the Bogotá Marriott Hotel.
This forum brings together authorities and key players from a dozen diverse Latin American countries, as well as international companies and industry associations, enriching the exchange of ideas and experiences. Regulators and operators are expected to contribute to building a more modern, harmonized regulatory framework adapted to regional trends.
Leading figures from the gaming sector in Peru, Mexico, Portugal, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Panama, Brazil, El Salvador, and Argentina (Buenos Aires), along with host country Colombia, have confirmed their participation. Marco Emilio Hincapié Ramírez, President of Coljuegos, will inaugurate the event.
All participants will debate in Bogotá on the state of the gaming industry in Ibero-America, taxation, and regulatory challenges under this year’s theme: “Latam: A Regulated Market Driving Opportunities”, already published on the event’s website: www.cumbreiberoamericanadeljuego.com.
As outlined in the published program, this edition promises to be a key space to explore the trends and challenges shaping the gaming industry in Ibero-America. Sector leaders will address strategic topics such as digitalization, the rise of iGaming, the impact of artificial intelligence, responsible gaming, the adaptation of land-based gaming to online growth, and fiscal challenges in an increasingly digitalized environment. The program, combining presentations, debates, and networking spaces, aims to foster a more innovative, secure, and sustainable gaming industry across the region.
According to organizer José Ángel Fernández of JAK Comunicación, this event highlights markets with the greatest growth potential, generally those with governmental stability. Adequate regulation for new forms of gaming is essential for the industry. Moreover, if the region has a strong economy like Colombia’s, which boosts competitiveness, the chances of success increase. The industry is in constant change and evolution.
Fernández also emphasized that the summit is the perfect place for both the public and private sectors to meet, explore business opportunities, and assess development potential in different markets. He added: “The participation of international companies and industry associations brings global experience, strengthening the forum’s value. This facilitates strategic alliances, enriches discussions, and expands the visibility and reach of the event, positioning it as an essential space for the development of a more innovative, secure, and sustainable gaming industry in Ibero-America.”
Major international companies interested in the potential of the gaming sector in Ibero-America have decided to support this meeting point. Firms such as Cirsa, GLI, Sharp Vision, Sportium, Novomatic, Oddin.gg, Wplay.co, BetPlay.co, Atomo Gaming, Ecobanka, Sora Lawyers, and organizations such as Alasca, AIEJA, and Invest in Bogotá have confirmed their sponsorship.
