Pivotal panels at the SiGMA Americas-Brazilian iGaming Summit

The Brazilian gaming landscape is shifting at a sensational pace, with new regulatory legislation bringing many diverse sectors into a market bursting with potential. The inaugural SiGMA Americas-Brazil iGaming Summit takes place 14 – 18 June.

The expo delivers a wealth of industry-leading knowledge along with a plethora of premium networking and entrepreneurial opportunities to the diverse, tropical shores of São Paulo.

The paramount event will see several insightful panels take centre stage, providing key thoughts and analysis of the soon-to-be industry giant emerging from the world’s fifth-largest nation, providing attendees with all the acuity to maximise their opportunities by successfully traversing the shifting terrain.

Some of these incisive insights can be seen at our key panels taking to the stage throughout the event, here are some of the most eye-catching offerings heading to Brazil this June.

Lottery In Brazil: Current Affairs and New Trends

The Misdemeanour Criminal Act (MCA) 1941 made almost all gambling illicit, with the lottery being made one of the salient exceptions. This has made it one of the most diverse and well-developed industries in the South American nation’s gaming sector.

The legalisation of alternate forms of gambling means the future of the lottery and its operators will have to undergo a mass shakeup, which will see the effects be returned throughout the sector.

The panel participants will include 2 key regulators in the Brazilian lottery sector, Francisco Petrônio, the Lottery Superintendent for the Brazilian state of Paraíba, and Jhontas Mendes Silva who is the Director of Lotteries for the northerly state of Maranhão.

Debate – The Future of The Industry In Brazil

In a change of structure, this debate will dynamically dissect the variety of gambling, betting and iGaming options that are set to become available in the coming months.

The shifting sector has many surprises and unpredictable movements in store and thus provides a superb opportunity for an engaging discussion. The strategic introduction of numerous entities into the gaming sector in Brazil could yield a plethora of outcomes in the way the market can be scaled, the innovations that will be spawned and the creative integration of tried and proven aspects from successful foreign business models.

Wesley Cardia, the CEO of Associação Nacional de Jogos e Loterias (ANJL), an association inaugurated just this year, will comprise one-half of the debate.

Global Expectations for The Industry in Brazil

The iGaming sector in particular has been of importance to the multi-billion dollar, Brazil-facing offshore industry; despite being illegal when based within Brazilian borders.

The much-anticipated legalisation of this industry leaves operators with many choices and decisions to be made regarding how best to maximise the new sector – which by many accounts is poised to become one of the globe’s largest and most significant markets.

This panel will benefit from the key knowledge and thought processes of 4 C-level executives, which will also garner the audience a comprehensive understanding of how the industry’s shiny new infrastructure is set to be constructed.

All this and much more will be given an influential platform at the SiGMA Americas Summit from the 14th to the 18th of June, at the Transamerica Expo Centre in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
