Italy: A Thriving Market Poised for Growth
Italy’s online casino market is expected to reach US$4.03 billion by 2028, driven by a strong compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.85% (2024 – 2028). This significant growth creates an attractive opportunity for both established and emerging operators. While a streamlined licensing system requires a significant investment, it fosters a fairer and more transparent playing field, ultimately benefiting the entire industry. The Online Casino Summit Italia 2024, held in Rome on 9 – 10 May, equips you with the knowledge and connections to thrive in this dynamic market.

Germany: An Innovative Market Ready for Collaboration
Germany’s iGaming market is projected to reach US$6.96 billion by 2028. This surge is fueled by two key factors: legalisation in 2021 and the establishment of a central regulatory body, the Joint Gambling Authority (GGL), in early 2023. This regulatory framework, coupled with a strong user base, particularly among younger demographics, is attracting online gambling operators seeking licences. However, fostering a sustainable and responsible environment requires collaboration between all industry stakeholders. iGaming Germany 2024, to be held in Munich on 5 – 6 June, connects industry leaders to address key areas for a healthy market:
