SOFTSWISS to Host the 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon at SiGMA Central Europe Summit

SOFTSWISS is set to deliver four hours of insights on the future of iGaming at the SiGMA Central Europe Summit on 5 November 2025. The 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon will take place from 12:00 to 16:00 on the People, Partners & Performance Stage, featuring keynotes and panels with global industry leaders. For the first time, the 2026 iGaming Trends Report will be unveiled live — exclusively at this event.

The Marathon will open with a keynote by Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, followed by a high-level panel featuring Heathcliff Farrugia, COO of SiGMA, and Pierre Lindh, CEO of Next.io. In this session, experts will deliver ‘the ultimate forecast duel’ – analysing what drives results in 2025 and revealing the disruptive moves set to reshape growth in 2026.

Across four hours, the programme will address the industry’s most pressing challenges and opportunities. Here is the full agenda for the Marathon:

With contributions from SOFTSWISS experts alongside global executives, regulators, and innovators, the 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon promises to spark debate and deliver practical insights for every corner of the ecosystem.

After publishing the iGaming Trends Report for four consecutive years, we asked ourselves: how can we go further? The Marathon is the perfect metaphor – strong players in this industry know it’s not about short-term wins but about sustainable strategy. iGaming has matured, and meaningful results come from long-distance vision. At the final major industry event of the year, we’ll not only launch the report but also debate the insights live – helping us all to shape the strategy for 2026.
