Bogota prepares for a new edition of GAT Expo

GAT Expo Bogotá 2026 will bring together the main players in Colombia's gaming industry, along with international entrepreneurs, in a day that will combine commercial exhibition, technological updating and spaces for professional exchange.

The participation of Asojuegos, Fecoljuegos, Cornazar and Fedelco, together with their associates, will allow the exchange of perspectives on the priorities of the sector and its development opportunities in the medium and long term.

The first panel will be dedicated to "Responsible Gaming and Sustainable Development" and will feature the participation of the presidents of operator and supplier associations in Colombia.

The second discussion will be moderated by Georges Didier, from GLI, and will bring together businessmen linked to the operation of physical casinos to discuss the evolution of the market and the processes that the Latin American industry is going through.

For its part, the third panel will be led by Andrés Blanco, from Gamanza Engage, a platform specialising in CRM, gamification and customer loyalty. Representatives of authorized online gambling operators in Colombia will participate in this space.

The agenda seeks to strengthen communication between regulatory authorities, unions and companies, with the aim of building a shared vision of the future of the activity.
