The leading events and media company SBC is excited to announce the return of its global betting and iGaming exhibition and conference, SBC Summit Barcelona, on 19-21  September.

Over 10,000 influential decision-makers, including 2,000 operator representatives and 1,000 affiliate representatives, will attend the show at the Fira de Barcelona Montjuïc. The event will showcase 300 top exhibitors and feature 80+ hours of conference content delivered by 450 of the industry’s most brilliant minds.

This year, due to popular demand after the overwhelming success of the event’s 2022 edition, SBC will double the size of the exhibition space. The enlarged area will cover an impressive 38,000 square metres, slightly bigger than Espanyol’s RCDE Stadium, which hosted the SBC Football Championship last year.
