Wazdan, the leading gain-focused developer, is ready to make its mark at the upcoming SiGMA Central Europe summit in Rome, taking place from 4th to 6th November at the Fiera Roma.

Italy represents one of Europe’s largest untapped online gambling markets, with total gambling revenue currently standing at an estimated €16 billion. Currently, only 25% of the market operates online, leaving €12 billion in offline revenue waiting to be unlocked.

Situated at stand 4040, Wazdan will be on hand to showcase the company’s Online gaining™ formula, featuring its captivating portfolio with over 250 certified games translated in more than 30 languages across 25 regulated markets.

Attendees will have the chance to experience the highly anticipated Mighty Wild™: Gorilla release, while the recently launched Cash Grotto™, 16 Coins™ x5000 and Mighty Crown™: Legacy of Mars will also be on show, with all experiencing impressive early performances with the studio’s operator partners globally.

Turning attention to Wazdan’s industry-renowned network promotions, those in Rome will also benefit from invaluable insight into the upcoming multi-stage €6,000,000 Network Promotion, which has been built to secure long-term player retention rates during the busy festive period.

Beyond the product showcasing and prize giveaways, Wazdan views the summit as a key opportunity to strengthen regional partnerships and deepen its engagement with Italy’s thriving iGaming sector.

The event’s prominence on the global industry calendar makes it a natural fit for Wazdan’s ambitions to lead the way in compelling slot innovation and partner-focused growth.

Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan, said: “SiGMA Central Europe is a fantastic opportunity to connect with partners and share how our Online gaining™ formula continues to drive measurable growth.
