As this will be the first event in a regulated Brazil, it is important for us to partner with a company that helps bring the industry together to discuss all pressing issues in the country and supports our values with its content and educational efforts.”
The SBC Summit Rio event is expected to bring together over 2,000 local and global senior executives with a focus on regulations, localized product offerings, sports integrity, and data rights, among other crucial topics. During the event, more than 150 expert speakers will share their unique insights into current and future opportunities and challenges in the Brazilian market. Additionally, the exhibition floor will feature 70 exhibitor brands showcasing the latest technologies, products, and services that Brazil has to offer in the gaming and betting industry.
The strategic collaboration between SBC and IBJR will not only contribute to the dissemination of the message about responsible gaming and effective regulations but will also help solidify SBC Summit Rio as the premier event for industry executives interested in the Brazilian market. Cristian Robalino, Vice President of Marketing at SBC Americas, noted: “Harnessing IBJR’s expertise in regulation and responsible gaming will further elevate our understanding and expertise in this market, benefiting not only us as event organizers but also the broader betting community, including operators, affiliates, suppliers, and even sports teams.”
