It was only a matter of time until South Asia, home to over 25% of the world's population, had its major inaugural gaming meeting: SiGMA will launch a new event for the region's markets in Sri Lanka. It is scheduled to take place from November 30 to December 2, 2025, in the city of Colombo.
About 5,000 delegates are expected to attend the 2025 SiGMA South Asia event, with a speaker list led by experts presenting more than 150 industry authorities, including government officials, regulators, and representatives from major gaming and land-based companies in South Asia.
The event will also feature the participation of over 800 affiliates and an exhibition space driven by top-tier companies from the region's top 10 companies, promising an unparalleled experience for networking and business.
The dates of the SiGMA South Asia and Affiliate World events are perfectly aligned, allowing delegates to maximize their experience in South Asia.
Starting with SiGMA in Colombo (Monday, December 1) and Tuesday (2), operators or studios seeking traffic will be able to fly easily and quickly to Bangkok on Wednesday (3), just in time for the first day of Affiliate World on Thursday (4). This schedule offers a unique opportunity to attend the two main industry events in a streamlined trip.
Networking opportunities are abundant, with a prestigious gala awards ceremony kicking off the event, as well as a charity auction in support of the Foundation – the charity arm of SiGMA that oversees a series of global projects and fundraising activities, such as a skill development center for women in Ethiopia, and a multisensory room for children in Bataan, Philippines.
Delegates will also have the opportunity to strengthen new relationships through a series of no-expense-spared dinners, catering to a C-level audience. Things end with an official party.
Why Colombo?
Situated on the west coast of the island, south of the Kelani River, the thriving financial hub of Colombo makes it a privileged business destination. Connected through multiple air routes, Sri Lanka offers a gateway for top local and global companies and leading talents.
With a total investment value of 500 million dollars, the Colombo International Financial Centre (CIFC) is the main development project of the Colombo Port City Special Economic Zone and an extension of Sri Lanka's Central Business District. Popularly known as the garden city of the West, the state-of-the-art infrastructure caters to a diverse and lush cultural landscape.
“Join us at the forefront of this transformation and witness an experience that will set new standards in the industry and firmly place the country on the map as a top-tier gaming destination”, invite the organizers.
