The Sri Lanka Convention Bureau (SLCB) has formally endorsed the event, calling it a major opportunity for the country's tourism and gaming sector.
In his letter of support, Sri Lanka Convention Bureau Chairman Thisam Jayasuriya said: “Sri Lanka Convention Bureau believes that SiGMA South Asia 2025 will be a pivotal event for Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka Convention Bureau supports the proposal to host the SiGMA South Asia Summit 2025 in Sri Lanka and pledges its utmost support to SiGMA South Asia in hosting the conference in Sri Lanka.”
The inaugural SiGMA South Asia event is scheduled to take place in Colombo from 30 November to 2 December 2025. The event is expected to attract over 5,000 delegates from across the gaming industry, including government officials, regulators and representatives from leading gaming companies in South Asia.
The conference will feature over 150 speakers and over 800 affiliate participants, and the exhibit floor will showcase the region's top companies and provide networking and business development opportunities.
Organizers are positioning the event as the games industry's premier gathering place, providing a platform for innovation, collaboration and thought leadership in one of the world's largest gaming regions.
SiGMA South Asia will be strategically aligned with the Affiliate World event in Bangkok to ensure participants make the most of networking opportunities across the region. After attending the SiGMA event in Colombo, delegates can travel to Bangkok in time for the launch of Affiliate World on 4 December.
