TaDa Gaming is anticipating its final show of 2025 at the SiGMA Central Europe Expo this 4-6 November. Taking place for the first time at Fiera, Rome, Stand 4062 will host the innovative provider’s full teams from Account Management, Business Development and Marketing.

With a 200+ portfolio of innovative games including TaDa’s unique fish-shooting titles, the team’s focus at SiGMA will be on regulated European markets and slots.

Successful licence applications include MGA; Hellenic Gaming Authority; Romania’s ONJN; Sweden’s Spelinspektionen; and the UKGC. With certification for multiple markets now including Portugal, TaDa’s signature localisation, innovation and future-proof approach to iGaming is paying dividends.

Multiple new integrations are ongoing across Europe, enhanced by TaDa’s most recent distribution agreement with Light & Wonder Inc. With an existing presence in Italy, Belgium and Portugal, TaDa’s reputation for engagement and retention has been reinforced with its new trademarked series Hit the Cash.

The interplay of Multipliers, Lock & Respin and Jackpots as the Hit the Cash signature, added to the random triggering of the jackpots and additional multipliers including Wilds, has meant players cannot get enough of these titles.

Visitors to the TaDa’s Experience Zone at Stand 4062 are guaranteed a winning experience. Hit releases Joker Coins and Fortune Coins 2 will be the headline slots, alongside the industry changing fish-shooting games such as the vampire rock’n’roll led Ocean King Jackpot and new release Fortune Zombie 2.

Ray Lee, Director of Business Development at TaDa Gaming, said: “SiGMA Rome is looking to be a fantastic final show in a year full of highly professional and profitable exhibitions for us. As we continue to build our name for safe, immersive and innovative gaming across Europe, we’re excited to reconnect and connect with clients and future clients to show how we deliver significant differentiation for their operations.”

Denis Kosinsky, Chief Operating Officer at NuxGame, joins us for an exclusive conversation ahead of HIPTHER’s European Gaming Congress 2025.

NuxGame, a leader in delivering powerful B2B iGaming solutions from turnkey casinos and sportsbooks to crypto gaming and modular aggregation, is a General Sponsor of this year’s Congress. With expertise spanning AI personalization, blockchain integration, and real-time analytics, Denis will bring his insights to the EGC panel “Leveraging AI for Competitive Advantage.”

Denis, as COO of NuxGame, you coordinate strategic growth and product innovation. What do you see as the most urgent priorities for iGaming operators today?

From our daily work with operators, we see personalization as one of the most urgent priorities in iGaming today. Players expect the same tailored experience they get from platforms like Netflix or Spotify, where everything feels made just for them the moment they log in. We work closely with our operators to make that possible. Whether it’s helping a slot-focused brand surface the right providers or enabling personalized campaigns by player behavior, our goal is to shorten the path from idea to go-live. With access to more than 16,500 games from over 130 providers, integrated loyalty and tier systems, and advanced analytics, operators can test, optimize, and launch personalized experiences quickly without heavy development cycles. This speed to market is critical. When operators can react fast and deliver relevant content at the right time, players stay engaged, retention grows, and brand loyalty follows naturally. That’s exactly where we focus on helping our partners move fast, personalize smarter, and scale sustainably.

NuxGame offers a multitude of solutions: casino, sportsbook, crypto integration, game aggregator. How do you make sure that your platform stays modular and scalable, and still manage to provide a stable experience for operators and players?

Our platform is built on a modular architecture that allows each business unit such as sportsbook, casino, payments, and back office to operate independently while remaining fully connected within a unified ecosystem. This structure ensures a stable and consistent experience for both players and operators, even when new features are introduced or updates are deployed. Each module can be developed, scaled, or maintained separately, which improves reliability and reduces the risk of system-wide issues. Through standardized APIs and controlled data flows, the business units collaborate efficiently while maintaining autonomy, ensuring high performance and a seamless experience across all platform components.

You’ll be joining the panel on AI in iGaming. How do you see artificial intelligence transforming the industry in the next few years – particularly in areas like player personalization, fraud detection, and operational efficiency?

AI is already reshaping iGaming in powerful ways. In fraud detection, it can uncover complex behavior patterns that traditional monitoring often misses, such as linked accounts or unusual bonus activity. These systems continuously learn from platform data, helping operators reduce losses and improve security. Predictive models are also becoming key in decision-making. They forecast player lifetime value, churn risk, and engagement potential, allowing operators to act early with targeted campaigns or retention offers. The same technology supports smarter CRM and marketing, helping teams focus on the players who matter most. Operationally, AI is improving efficiency through automated KYC verification, odds monitoring, and compliance checks. New AI agents now assist with platform configuration and content generation, enabling faster creation of campaigns, layouts, and recommendations. For players, AI brings true personalization. Instead of hundreds of random games, they see the few most relevant titles, offers, and providers. Operators who apply these capabilities effectively will build deeper engagement, trust, and long-term loyalty.

Gamification and blockchain are big parts of the NuxGame strategy. Could you share how these technologies are boosting engagement and retention for your clients?

Gamification and blockchain are redefining how operators drive engagement and retention, and at NuxGame we focus on turning every interaction into a reason for players to stay active. Our Achievements system rewards players for meaningful actions such as first deposits, login streaks, or consistent gameplay, while event-based notifications deliver these rewards at the right moment to sustain excitement. We extend engagement even further with loyalty programs, leaderboards, and platform chat that connects players directly within the gaming environment. Players can celebrate live wins, share achievements, and compete in real time, creating a social layer that strengthens the overall experience. Another popular feature is Spin Wheel, where operators can offer customized rewards ranging from free spins to bonus credits or unique prizes. It adds instant gratification and keeps players returning for another chance to win. Blockchain technology completes this ecosystem by powering fast, secure Web3 wallet onboarding and transparent crypto transactions, building player confidence from the very first interaction. Together, these features create a seamless, rewarding, and community-driven experience that keeps players engaged and operators growing.

With over 16,500+ games from 130+ providers on your platform, content aggregation is obviously your strength. How do you build partnerships that keep your portfolio diverse, compliant, and competitive?

Our goal at NuxGame is to provide operators with the same experience they would have if they integrated directly with each individual game provider, while delivering a much higher level of efficiency, automation, and control. What makes us different is not only the scale of our portfolio, with more than 16,500 games from over 130 providers, but the quality and depth of data we deliver for every game. We go beyond simple content aggregation by sending complete and enriched game metadata through our API. This includes detailed information such as bonus exposure, available provider promotions, tournament participation, and automated big-win checks. Most providers do not share this level of data, which makes it a key advantage for our partners. By providing it through the API, we eliminate a large amount of manual work for operators, simplify campaign management, and allow instant personalization and reporting. It is not just about having a large and diverse game portfolio. It is about giving operators the tools and real-time data they need to create dynamic, localized player experiences and make smarter business decisions. This is the foundation of our approach at NuxGame and what defines us as a true technology partner rather than just an aggregator.

NuxGame has been a pioneer in cryptocurrency integration. How do you balance the opportunities of Web3 with the obstacles of regulation, security, and user adoption in gaming?

Crypto and Web3 offer huge opportunities for iGaming, but success depends on security, compliance, and user experience. At NuxGame, we built our crypto solution to feel familiar to users of leading exchange platforms, with seamless wallet connections, real-time balances, and instant transactions. The system supports BTC, ETH, USDT, and other major assets, with Web3 wallet integration and direct crypto purchases for fast onboarding. For operators, it delivers built-in fraud prevention, risk monitoring, and compliance-ready reporting. This combination of trust, speed, and intuitive UX makes crypto adoption easy for players and expansion safe for operators.

So what’s next for NuxGame? Are there particular markets or partnerships you’re most excited about as you continue to expand?

We are putting a strong focus on the US market, particularly on enabling operators to launch faster within the sweepstakes model. This segment is growing rapidly but comes with complex regulatory and technical requirements. NuxGame is fully prepared for it with dual-currency logic, built-in compliance automation, and a complete payment orchestration layer that eliminates the typical setup delays operators face. Our platform provides a ready-made, legally tested foundation, so clients can go live without spending months on integrations or legal reviews. Combined with affiliate management, engagement tools, and modular scalability, operators can focus on growth rather than setup. The sweepstakes model is a major opportunity in the US, and our goal is to make NuxGame the go-to solution for fast, compliant, and profitable entry into that market.

Thank you, Denis, for sharing your vision and perspective on how technology is shaping the future of iGaming. We’re excited to hear more from you live on stage at the European Gaming Congress 2025!

The SBC Summit 2025 took place from 16–18 September at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa (FIL) and the MEO Arena in Lisbon, and the numbers and atmosphere confirm why SBC describes it as “the greatest show in iGaming.” Speaking at a dedicated press conference, SBC Events’ Managing Director Andrew McCarron and Senior Marketing Director Dennis Algreen shared the story behind this year’s record-breaking edition, its wider impact, and what comes next.

A Global Gathering for the iGaming Industry

The Lisbon event attracted over 30,000 attendees – a 20% increase on 2024 – representing 150 countries. Growth was visible across all audience segments, with operator attendance rising by 31% and affiliates by 38%. Importantly, the summit hosted nearly 6,000 C-level decision-makers, a concentration of senior leadership rarely seen at any industry event.

The show spanned 135,000m² across five expo halls and networking areas, supported by 700 sponsors and exhibitors – including 235 new partners. Regional participation also surged, particularly from Africa (+78%), Asia (+69%), and Latin America (+40%).

Exhibitors included iGaming suppliers, Online Casino and Sports Betting operators, Affiliates, Payment Providers, and more.

Beyond the numbers, Dennis Algreen emphasised that Lisbon has now firmly become “our global event” – expanded, and elevated after the success of its debut in Lisbon.

Content for Every Gaming Market

SBC placed special focus on tailoring content for a global audience. The new Global & Emerging Markets Stages highlighted different regions each day, giving attendees a direct window into growth areas like Africa, Asia, and Latin America, while for the rest of the agenda, the Summit revisited developments in more established territories. This dual approach ensured the event spoke to both established operators and those planning their expansion into emerging jurisdictions.

The introduction of Tech Academies was a new addition, offering hands-on learning about AI, blockchain, Web3, and other transformative technologies.

Headliners and Highlights

The Super Stage brought star power and inspiration, with headline speakers such as Gary Vaynerchuk, Randi Zuckerberg, Rubens Barrichello, and Oleksandr Usyk. The agenda was bolstered by more than 550 speakers across themed tracks, including the Affiliate Leaders Summit and Payments Expert Summit.

New additions in 2025 expanded SBC’s cultural and community footprint. A Food Festival enlivened networking areas, while the Affiliate Leaders Awards debuted as a standalone celebration of affiliate excellence.

Meanwhile, the Legends Charity Game became one of the most memorable features. Football icons including Roberto Carlos, Alessandro Del Piero, Marek Hamšík, and Giorgos Karagounis took to the pitch, raising significant donations for charity. The match was broadcast in more than 90 jurisdictions, with half a million online viewers in Spain alone.

Wider Impact on Lisbon’s Economy

The summit’s footprint was felt well beyond the venue. With more than 72,000 room nights booked, SBC Summit 2025 brought a measurable boost to Lisbon’s tourism and hospitality sector. Collaboration with local authorities was crucial, from traffic and zoning adjustments to logistical support, underlining how the city has embraced the summit as a flagship annual event.

McCarron noted: “This has a significance for the local community now. Lisbon knows us, works with us, and the impact is tangible.”

Networking, Community, and Culture

Networking remained a cornerstone. Dedicated areas linked directly to the conference stages, making it easier for delegates to connect around specific topics. The organisers also highlighted initiatives like SBC First Pitch, giving startups a chance to present their innovations, and Women in Gaming events, which included networking gatherings and super stage discussions on women in tech, sports, and gaming.

Entertainment, too, played a role. The Infinity closing party showcased world-class DJs Alok and Timmy Trumpet, giving attendees the chance to celebrate and unwind after an intense week of business.

European Gaming Media in the Room

European Gaming Media was present at SBC’s press conference, raising two questions to the organisers:

1. Why choose Lisbon for SBC’s “global event”?

Algreen explained that while multiple factors played a role, venue capacity and accessibility were decisive:

“When you put on an event of this scale, suitable options in Europe are limited. Lisbon offers one of the biggest indoor arenas in Europe, which allows us to deliver everything from the Super Stage to Infinity. Combined with the city’s beauty, weather, hospitality, and its strategic connection to Brazil – the next major growth market – it became the perfect choice.”

1. What’s next after breaking all these highs in 2025?

McCarron underlined that the immediate focus is on consolidating feedback and data, but pointed towards one clear direction:

“Emerging technologies will be a priority. From AI to blockchain and Web3, our goal is to make sure the industry is not just aware, but educated, so they can take their businesses forward. This year proved we can keep raising the bar, but we won’t rest – the summit is meant to be the greatest show in gaming, and that vision continues.”

SBC Summit in the Future: Looking Ahead

With its mix of scale, global reach, and innovative additions, SBC Summit 2025 laid the foundations for its organisers’ vision of a global event in the gaming industry calendar. The organisers confirmed that Lisbon will continue to host the summit, with next year’s edition already scheduled slightly later in September.

For attendees, exhibitors, and the city itself, SBC Summit 2025 was more than just an industry showcase – it was a statement of ambition and impact.
