(Buenos Aires, SoloAzar Exclusive).- With a large audience, the full conference schedule was held yesterday on the first day of SAGSE Latam 2025, which is taking place this week at the Hilton Buenos Aires Hotel and Convention Center.
Yesterday, in Halls B and C of the Salón Atlántico, the SAGSE Summit was held, a closed event by invitation and reconfirmation that focused on critical topics such as digitalization, regulation, and responsible gaming.
The first day of the exhibition was well attended, including many industry suppliers. Most of the exhibitors were in the online gaming sector. During the event, participating national and international companies were able to connect productively with the Argentine and Latin American gaming markets, both traditional and online.
Meanwhile, Buenos Aires, as the event's host, impresses with its rich culture, beautiful streets, warm hospitality, and contagious energy.
Jesús Mariano Acevedo, President of LOTBA, was one of the attendees at the opening. "For the gaming industry to grow in a healthy, transparent, and responsible manner, it is key that those of us who are part of the sector—from regulatory and controlling bodies, such as the Buenos Aires City Lottery, to operators, sponsors, and strategic allies—have opportunities to meet and exchange perspectives and experiences," said Acevedo, who added: "I had the honor of being invited to give the opening remarks at SAGSE Latam, the most important gaming sector meeting in the region and a fundamental space to find common ground among the various Latin American countries and foster collaborative work."
