From Manila to Miami: Groove Brings Its Global Momentum to SBC Summit Americas 2026

Fresh from participating at SiGMA Asia, Groove is now setting its sights on the Americas. The award-winning platform and aggregator will touch down at SBC Summit Americas 2026, bringing a global strategy forged across three continents to the fast-growing markets of North and Latin America.

The event, running June 9–11 at the Broward County Convention Centre, will see Groove’s leadership team, including Co-Founder and CEO Yahale Meltzer and Business Development Director Giusy Campo, engage with operators, regulators, and affiliates from across the hemisphere. Their arrival in Fort Lauderdale is no mere conference stop. It is the next chapter in a year of deliberate, multi-continental expansion.

Groove enters Florida on the back of a transformative 2025. The company secured a license to operate in Brazil, established regulated activity in Argentina, and deepened its footprint across Europe, Africa, and Asia. Recent shortlistings validated a strategic pivot: from content provider to comprehensive growth engine. Now, the Americas beckon.

Giusy Campo, Business Development Director at Groove, who joined the company in 2025 to lead its charge into regulated markets, has been at the centre of this global push. She will be on the ground in Fort Lauderdale, continuing conversations that began at SiGMA Asia just days earlier: “When we move into a new region, we don’t arrive empty-handed,” said Campo. “We come with a platform built on structural resilience: predictive auto-scaling, atomic transactions, and a real-time compliance mesh that adapts to jurisdictional demands, not the other way around. Operators in the Americas face many of the same pressures as their counterparts in Asia: banking scrutiny, shifting regulations, and the need for flawless execution. Our ‘Unseen Architecture’ was built for exactly this moment.”

Campo will be meeting with operators seeking more than a game list. “They need a partner whose platform won’t introduce compliance or operational risk into their business,” she added. “That’s what we deliver. From Manila to Miami, the questions are the same. And we have the answers.”

Groove’s presence at SBC Summit Americas is the mirror image of its recent success at SiGMA Asia. In Manila, the company joined a high-stakes panel on regulatory resilience in the “Jurisdiction Jungle”. In Florida, the conversation shifts to the Americas, where the opportunities are vast, but the regulatory landscape is equally fragmented.

With over 15,000 games from more than 150 providers unified through a single API, Groove offers operators a powerful shortcut to market leadership.

SBC Summit Americas 2026 is expected to draw over 10,000 industry professionals and 400 exhibitors, covering regulation, product innovation, payment technology, cryptocurrency, AI, and cybersecurity. Groove will be positioned at the intersection of all of them, ready to show operators why the platform that just conquered Asia is now setting its sights on the Americas.

Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, framed the company’s back-to-back summit presence as a matter of strategic discipline: “We don’t do ‘one-off’ events. We build continuous relationships across the markets that matter,” said Meltzer. “Asia was about demonstrating structural resilience in the face of fragmentation. The Americas require the same rigour: a platform that can scale from a single operator in Argentina to a national lottery in Brazil without breaking compliance or trust. Our nomination in Manila wasn’t an endpoint. It was a signal. Now we take that signal to Fort Lauderdale, where the real work begins.”

Meltzer emphasised that Groove’s global footprint with offices in Israel, Georgia, and Malta, and a 24/7 multilingual support team, is the operational backbone of this expansion.

“When an operator in São Paulo has a question, they get an answer from someone who understands their market context, not just their technical issue,” he said. “That is the difference between a platform and a partner. We are here to be the latter, for the Americas and beyond.”
