(Bogota).- Gaming & Technology Expo continues to solidify its position as the leading business platform for the gaming sector in Latin America, with upcoming stops: GAT Expo México, on August 27 and 28 in CDMX, and in Colombia, GAT Expo Bogotá, on September 25. GAT arrives for the first time at the heart of Mexico with a trade show filled with diverse content tailored to a dynamic market, full of opportunities and challenges to capitalize on.
Colombia remains a hub for sectoral development, and GAT Expo Bogotá offers an annual showroom anchored in the industry calendar, emphasizing growth and stability of the land-based segment in the country.
GAT Expo CDMX, August 27 & 28
GAT Expo México will take place at Expo Santa Fe, a multifunctional venue located in this modern financial district of Mexico City. The current snapshot of the gaming industry, its expansion, widespread mobile internet access, and the ongoing regulatory reform updating legislation across all verticals make GAT Expo CDMX a golden opportunity to join this powerful economic sector, invest, and form new business alliances in a robust market connected to the entire American continent.
In Mexico, GAT Expo will broaden the scope of its components. The first is GAT Academy CDMX, scheduled across both days of the expo—Wednesday, August 27 will feature conferences and panels focused on knowledge updates, cutting-edge technologies, regulatory reforms, and key industry topics. On August 28, GAT Expo CDMX will present specialized workshops offering attendees a high-value educational experience across strategic sectors: online betting, land-based casinos, Fintech, and regulation. On Stage 1, experts will explore trends in digital payments, cryptocurrencies, cybersecurity, Esports betting, instant messaging betting, and preparations for sports platforms ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Meanwhile, Stage 2 will center on face-to-face operations, with content on sensory and physical casino design, omnichannel integration, sportsbooks, Gen Z loyalty strategies, illegal gambling prevention, and corporate social responsibility programs. A must-attend day to boost knowledge, forge alliances, and grow business in a transforming Mexican market.
The Latin American Summit of Gaming Associations will be held on Thursday, August 28, with participation from trade groups in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, and Dominican Republic, among other federations, led by Fecoljuegos and AIEJA. The summit’s objective is to establish the Latin American Network of Gaming Associations (Relazar), achieving consensus in an institutional space for dialogue, cooperation, and representation. It will promote the exchange of actions, experiences, plans, and jurisdictional accomplishments to harmonize operations and regulations throughout the region, encouraging responsible gambling and legality.
The highlight of GAT Expo CDMX is undoubtedly the commercial exhibition taking place on Thursday, August 28, starting at 10:00 a.m., showcasing iconic brands and companies in land-based gaming, online betting with exponential growth across Mexico, Latin America, and the Caribbean, virtual betting, and technology developers in cybersecurity and payment gateways integrated into the gaming ecosystem. High-level networking activities will also be held.
GAT Expo Bogotá, September 25
For its part, GAT Expo Bogotá continues to establish itself as the premier event for the Colombian market in the final quarter of the year. Scheduled for Thursday, September 25, this gathering will bring together operators, suppliers, and high-profile executives for eight hours in an environment ideal for strategic relationship-building, commercial portfolio updates, and deal-making.
The previous edition of GAT Bogotá featured 25 exhibiting brands and executives from more than 25 countries. In 2025, a significant increase in participation is expected from companies in the land-based sector, online betting, technology platforms, and specialized services, due to the event’s importance in the country's business calendar and its appeal to multinational firms with interests in Colombia and Latin America.
As part of GAT Expo Bogotá 2025, the first stop of the Esports tournament will be held, developed through the partnership between GAT Esports, Colombian Official Esports, and the Colombian Olympic Committee, as agreed in the tripartite alliance established last April at GAT Expo Cartagena de Indias.
José Aníbal Aguirre, CEO of GAT, invites the industry to attend GAT Expo México, taking place August 27 and 28: “We want to reaffirm our role in Mexico as a unifying force for the Latin American gaming industry. In the case of the Aztec country, we aim to bring together providers, manufacturers, licensees, and operators of both land-based and online casinos to defend legal gambling and create an ecosystem founded on shared commercial development goals and corporate social responsibility. We also seek to encourage new investments and productive mergers between technology and marketing. Our longtime exhibitors in Colombia already understand the value of showcasing their brands at GAT Expo Bogotá. This time, we're especially motivated by the inclusion of the Dominican Republic’s Raza Carreras brand as a Platinum Sponsor, with a keen interest in joining the vertical of race and virtual sports betting (ACDV), currently promoted by Coljuegos for the retail segment.”
Participating brands at GAT CDMX and GAT Bogotá include: Pragmatic Play, Aristocrat, Betconstruct, 1 X BET, Altenar, Betandeal, Big Bola, Air Dice, America Simulcast, ASAP Américas, Mobadoo, Betconnections, Gamintec, Sprint Gaming, Oklahoma, Prometeo, DRGT, Fininvest, Slotcycle, Mikohn Technology LLC, Dragon Slaughter, Jukebox, BYA Group, Betting Software, WA Technology, Better Collective, Italtronic, Blokotech, Win Systems, Novomatic, Raza Carreras, Gambee, RP Col.
The organizers confirm the continuation of their GAT 205 tour, now heading to the Caribbean, with scheduled dates on October 28–29 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and on November 12–13 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, two emerging markets experiencing robust growth and regulatory evolution.
