SBC says its SBC Summit Rio event in Brazil grew 200 per cent in size year-on-year in its 2025 edition.
The igaming events company said the expo at the Riocentro welcomed 12,000 industry professionals.
The event spanned 30,000sq.m. and brought in 400 exhibitors and sponsors. SBC said 42 per cent of the audience were C-level executives and senior decision-makers.
Taking place only a few weeks into regulated online gaming operations in Brazil, licensed gaming brands in Brazil were present alongside Ministry of Finance representatives Carolina Yumi and Daniela Olimpio.
“We’ve created a platform where business gets done, connections are made, and the industry moves forward together,” said SBC CEO and co-founder Rasmus Sojmark.
Taking place alongside SBC Summit Rio were the Affiliate Leaders Summit and the Influencer Academy, amid the key role played by influencers in all sectors in Brazil.
Meanwhile, the Payment Expert Summit offered insights into KYC, fraud prevention and compliance in Brazil.
Carolina Yumi de Souza from the Ministry of Finance, who spoke at the event, said: “The occurrence of this event, with the number of people and companies present, is very important in demonstrating the trust that regulation has brought to the market and the confidence in the functioning of institutions in Brazil.”
