´CGS Latam stands out as a tailor-made event for the Latin American market, focused mainly on casinos´

What will the format of this edition of CGS Latam be like? What kind of activities will be carried out?


This 12th edition, CGSLatam will be held in person, incorporating the facilities provided by virtual platforms, making the event a hybrid for those who have difficulties traveling.

The agenda is extremely full, we start with morning Conferences, coffee breaks and brunch to network, the expo opens at 2:30 pm until 7 pm. The afternoons will have training sessions and push sessions. The first day we will have a Welcome Cocktail for Delegates, Speakers and Exhibitors. Likewise, we closed with a flourish with a Cheese & Wine and the CGS Awards, we are working hard to prepare an unparalleled edition, working in my house (Chile) and bringing the Show to the country for the first time.

What will be the opening hours of the show?


Due to the volume of activities we are quoting to open conferences very early, we will open registration at 7:45 am, and start o'clock at 8:30 am. Although as Latinos we are a little less strict with the schedules, I must ask our participants to make an effort to be very punctual to achieve the proper development of the activities.

Who is going to participate in this edition? Visitors from which countries do you expect to receive, or will they be local guests?


The Summit will be attended by our Diamond Sponsors: Latamwin; Platinum: Pragmatic Play, Payku, Instabet, Jumio, Smartsoft Gaming, Sportingtech, Intervision Gaming, Evolution, Zuum, EvenBet, BMM and Gold: Ezugi, Netent, Playtech, Estelarbet, Sportradar, ColoColo, Retabet, Jazz Gaming, GLI, Pariplay, Varela Vidal Abogados, VyO, Universal Soft, Gaming Consultores, Pay4Fun, Cockpit, Pagsmile, Softswiss Gaming, WBA, Instafiliados, Gamer Section, Sprint, BetConnections, Siempre Games, Coliseo Sport, Pagsmile, among others of great importance.

The main ex-regulators of the region will be present at the show What will be their role?


With great pride we will receive for the first time 3 former regulators who, together with one of the most important laboratories (GLI) and one of the most important gaming lawyers in the region (Jame Varela) will develop an unparalleled panel, reviewing the challenges and achievements obtained in terms of regulation. With his vast experience, I'm sure we will update great information on these 3 greats in the industry. Javier Balbuena (Paraguay), Luis Gama (Uruguay) and Manuel San Román (Peru). Having them with us is a recognition of our trajectory, a support for our work and the feeling that no matter the size of the executive who is interested in our event, if it is about making the best network, the CGS is the ideal place.

Why did you choose Chile as the venue for this new edition? And what challenges did you have to face with the change of location?


#CGSLatam stands out as a tailor-made event for the Latin American market, focused mainly on casinos. But as the months progressed and the global calendars were rearranged, CGS was no exception and it was necessary to reschedule for this May 24 and 25. The chosen location, the Casa Piedra Convention Center in the prestigious district of Vitacura. Likewise, global logistics issues still represent a challenge for the assembly of new products, the timely delivery of orders, the timely dispatch of demos for the stands and, added to this, the war in Eastern Europe, left out many highly interested companies. to land in South America.

Under this scenario, the online industry was identified as a vertical of unstoppable rise, with global gamblers who continue to find in this new industry the perfect space to spend leisure time and tempt fate. Globally, the landbased industry generates approximately 231 billion dollars, sports betting (online games) 110 billion dollars and e-Sports 1.38 billion dollars and special attention here, an audience of more than 530 million people.

All these considerations were the perfect reason for #CGSLatam to migrate from being an event that concentrated the largest number of landbased exhibitors to an exhibition of online products and technological trends. In addition, to improve the formula for the success of the event, we must add the tax regulations issued by the Chilean Internal Revenue Service Official Letter No. 3591, dated December 21, 2021, modifying the text of the Income Tax Law in relation to sports betting platforms and online games, and just as importantly, the recent presentation to the Chilean Parliament of Bill 464 - 369, dated March 1 issued by the Superintendency of Gaming Casinos, whose process has the entire international market expectant.

Finally, the Organization thanks all the participants and registrants, who add up to more than 200.
