SiGMA Calendar 2022

In 2022, the SiGMA Group will be moving to a number of exciting locations, the first of which will be Kenya, with Nairobi on the agenda for March. Here we plan to tap into a market full of sports fans and a young, digitally connected generation. We have also planned exhibitions for countries that are taking their first steps as regulated markets: in June we will go to Toronto and Ukraine, in what will be the first live events for the new SiGMA Americas and SiGMA CEI brands. Both countries are set to test the waters with operators and affiliates next year, making them a great location for the SiGMA Group conference stage and exhibition floor plan.
