Industry Overview & iGaming Conferences
The iGaming industry is experiencing rapid growth, driven by cutting-edge technology and increased mobile and internet access. In 2023, the global iGaming market hit around $73 billion and is expected to reach over $127 billion by 2027. Research shows a growing interest in emerging markets, particularly in Latin America and Asia.
To keep up with these trends, we actively participate in conferences dedicated to iGaming. The Next Summit Valletta is one such prominent event that we were thrilled to attend. It’s another exciting pit stop on our journey of exploring and connecting within the iGaming world, adding to the list of successful conferences we’ve attended this year!
The Onset of AI in iGaming
The first takeaway is quite obvious, but important to highlight. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is slowly making its mark on the iGaming industry. The conference highlighted the importance of being proactive with AI technology—testing, adapting, and integrating these tools into existing frameworks.
While AI has not yet fully integrated into iGaming, its potential to revolutionize game personalization, customer service, and operational efficiency is undeniable.
The Focus on Latin America
There’s a growing buzz around Latin American (LatAm) countries as prime spots for iGaming ventures. Many industry leaders are shifting their focus to these regions, drawn by the increasing internet access and a largely untapped customer base. At the summit, the talks highlighted the importance of crafting strategies that fit the unique cultural and regulatory landscapes of LatAm countries.
Evolving Fraud Detection and Security
As fraud detection and prevention tools keep evolving, so do the tactics of those trying to outsmart them. The summit highlighted this ongoing arms race in iGaming security. It’s clear that constantly innovating and improving security measures is crucial to staying ahead of fraudsters and ensuring a safe environment for users.
Conclusion
Next Summit Valletta was eye-opening in many ways, offering a glimpse into the future of iGaming. From the gradual integration of AI to the strategic focus on LatAm markets and the rapid pace of security advancements, the conference highlighted both the complexities and opportunities within the industry. Moving forward, these insights will surely shape the strategies of iGaming professionals and stakeholders worldwide.
We’re looking forward to the next opportunities to connect with amazing people, exchange ideas, and learn about the latest trends in the industry!
