A Key Forum for the Indian Subcontinent

South Asia represents a region of significant potential, driven by a young, mobile-first population and increasing digital adoption. However, regulatory uncertainty and differing state-level approaches — particularly in India — create both challenges and opportunities for operators and suppliers.

SPiCE South Asia provides a neutral, professional setting for addressing these complexities. Discussions typically focus on regulatory developments, responsible gaming measures, taxation, market entry strategies and technological innovation.

Conference Agenda and Industry Insight

The summit features keynote presentations, expert panels and interactive discussions led by legal specialists, regulators, operators and affiliate leaders. Core themes are expected to include:

• Evolving regulatory frameworks in India and neighbouring markets

• Skill gaming versus chance-based gaming debates

• Compliance and responsible gambling standards

• Payment solutions and fintech innovation

• Affiliate and marketing strategies in restricted advertising environments

The content is designed to deliver practical insights tailored to the unique legal and cultural landscape of South Asia.

Exhibition and Networking Opportunities

Alongside the conference sessions, the exhibition floor showcases leading gaming platforms, sportsbook solutions, payment providers and compliance technologies relevant to the region.

Networking remains central to SPiCE South Asia. Delegates can expect structured business matchmaking, private meetings and evening social events aimed at fostering long-term partnerships across the subcontinent.

With regulatory discussions intensifying and market structures continuing to evolve, staying informed is essential for sustainable growth in South Asia’s gaming industry. SPiCE South Asia 2026 provides a vital platform for collaboration, education and strategic planning.

For operators, affiliates and suppliers targeting South Asia, the summit represents an important milestone in the 2026 global iGaming events calendar.
