This gives the event, which is already focused on industry debates, networking and business opportunities, a professional development aspect as well. The conference sessions offer the opportunity to look at the various issues impacting gaming businesses, such as regulatory developments and operational difficulties as well as emerging technologies and changing market conditions.
The CPD initiative provides attendees with a method of recording their learning and including it in their broader professional development.
Professional learning across the industry
Staying informed about developments in the gaming industry goes beyond just keeping up with industry headlines since regulatory requirements vary from one jurisdiction to another, technology is always altering the way operations are run, and commercial strategies have to take into account changes in player behaviour and in market access.
The topics in question are of interest to a wide variety of professionals. When considering entry into a new market an operator will deal with a regulatory issue in a different way from a compliance specialist who is in charge of putting the rules into effect. In the same way, a technology provider might concentrate on the ways in which new tools can enhance present systems.
The programme of the conference combines these different viewpoints so that the delegates can attend talks given by people in the industry and look at topics that are directly related to their own work.
The CPD initiative extends beyond gaming, reflecting the multi-industry nature of SiGMA World 2026. The programme covers professional development across executive leadership, regulation, compliance, payments, technology, product innovation, market expansion and affiliate marketing.
Delegates can explore these subjects across five conference stages:
- Main Stage: International market expansion, regulation, gaming operations and industry leadership.
- Italy Stage: Italy’s regulated gaming market, compliance, product innovation and commercial developments.
- AGS Stage: Affiliate marketing, traffic acquisition, SEO and performance marketing.
- AIBC Stage: Artificial intelligence, blockchain, digital assets and emerging technologies.
- Global Finance Stage: Financial services, fintech, forex, payments and liquidity.
Continuing Professional Development means acquiring knowledge and skills which enable professionals to maintain and improve them. At SiGMA World 2026, the learning hours that are acceptable will be those relating to the presentations and discussions on the conference stages, and not to visits to the exhibitions, networking events or commercial meetings.
Delegates are entitled to claim a maximum of six CPD hours for each of the three conference days that they attend. The number of hours given will be decided as part of the attendance verification and CPD certificate process.
How delegates can claim CPD hours
Delegates are able to express their interest in having their conference learning recognised on SiGMA’s dedicated CPD page.
The process starts with a brief online form which the attendees can fill in either before or while at the summit. It is necessary for the delegates to scan their badges each time they enter the venue if they are attending conference sessions.
The daily entrance records will serve as proof of attendance. After the event, SiGMA will match the registration requests with the available records and iGaming Academy will be in charge of issuing the CPD certificates.
Individual session check-ins will not be necessary, though delegates should bear in mind that the CPD initiative concerns learning at the conference stage and not the wider variety of activities on offer at the venue.
People who need help with registration or the CPD process should go to the SiGMA College stand at the summit.
For gaming professionals who are planning to attend the event, the initiative provides yet another reason why they should consider the conference programme thoroughly. Together with the contacts obtained and the ideas shared in Rome, qualifying participation in the conference can form part of a documented record of professional learning.
Delegates may express an interest by using the dedicated SiGMA CPD page.
