Philippines’ gaming regulator endorses SiGMA Asia Summit

SiGMA Asia Summit has been a key event for developing trends in iGaming as well as fintech, and PAGCOR has been interested in championing both, while the summit also fits in the Philippines broader economic development programs, the hosts noted in a press release shared with Casino Guru News.

For its part, PAGCOR welcomed the summit as a place where stakeholders from across sectors - including government, operators, technology vendors, and investors - come together and engage, as well as promote and develop partnerships.

SiGMA Asia Summit also positions itself as a pillar of driving further compliance, innovation, and business development, allowing businesses to collaborate on initiatives that have a direct impact on industries that PAGCOR itself cares about and wants to further nurture.

In a press statement, the hosts said: "PAGCOR has demonstrated its commitment to initiatives that will create a measurable socioeconomic impact through project development. As the government’s national gaming regulator and steward, PAGCOR oversees the gaming industry and related businesses through regulation and guidance aligned with government priorities."

The event itself will be split into two parts - one focusing on networking and connecting with others, while the second one will seek to deliver actionable insights, regulatory updates, and lay the groundworks for strategic partnerships.

PAGCOR’s endorsement of the event further cements its position as an important business meeting on the calendar that relevant stakeholders will want to attend to catch up on regulatory, business, and compliance updates. PAGCOR has already committed to working closer with the SiGMA Asia Summit to strengthen the event’s impact.

"The endorsement gives delegates great confidence that the summit aligns with the country’s strategic objectives and offers a clearer path toward achieving national development goals. With support from regulators and participation from all sectors of the industry, the summit will generate significant engagement across all Industry verticals," the hosts concluded in the press statement.
