The recent iGB L!VE 2025, held at ExCel London due to a special relocation, was a premier event in the industry, drawing over 15,000 top iGaming operators, tech vendors, affiliates, suppliers, and other stakeholders. The event aimed to unite the iGaming elite while addressing pressing industry issues, offering seamless networking opportunities, and fostering new business partnerships.
This edition of iGB L!VE was the largest to date, with its move to London allowing for greater attendance by industry professionals. The event coincided with London iGaming Week, stimulating discussions on key industry trends. Highlights included the iGB L!VE Bar, sponsored by Eshkol, known for driving performance in iGaming marketing.
iGB L!VE has established itself as a leading venue where affiliates, operators, suppliers, and stakeholders gather to shape the industry’s future and create beneficial partnerships. It goes beyond providing groundbreaking discussions on trends, helping attendees build social capital and connect with potential clients face-to-face. This interaction is highly valued in today’s relationship-driven gambling sector.
The event also featured the iGB Affiliate Awards 2025, a key highlight on the iGaming calendar, celebrating achievements across various sectors, particularly within the affiliate domain. These accolades enhance brand presence, demonstrate reliability, and build trust with potential partners.
While iGB L!VE is a significant event, it’s not alone. SBC Events has launched numerous large-scale conferences like SBC Summit, SBC Summit Americas, and SBC Summit Europe, each serving as a regional hub for innovation and collaboration. SBC Summit is set to welcome 30,000 delegates in September, marking its largest turnout yet, including 8,000 operators, 3,500 affiliates, 700 exhibitors, and 550 speakers. Similar to iGB L!VE, the summit features distinct conference tracks and concludes with the SBC Awards 2025, a key industry benchmark.
AffPapa’s highly successful iGaming Club focuses on networking, while iGaming NEXT brings executives together. The Gaming-in series has introduced conferences in Spain and Germany, two complex markets.
Industry events are vital in shaping the gambling future, with entertainment playing a role through welcome drinks, after-parties, or awards. These gatherings bring influential leaders together for honest debate and collaboration on new ideas. Even if not all events are essential, many provide opportunities that cannot be missed.
