SiGMA Awards South America 2026 – A night of industry recognition

The BiS SiGMA South America Summit hosted the 4th annual SiGMA South America Awards, which were awarded on April 10th, 2026, at the Tokio Marine Hall in São Paulo, Brazil. With this award ceremony, São Paulo becomes an undeniable city of significance for achievement, influence, and relationships in the gaming ecosystem, as it is Brazil’s largest city. This award ceremony provided elite visitors across all categories of the gaming ecosystem with a formal, purpose-driven gathering that combined prestige and purpose.

An exclusive industry affair

The SiGMA Awards were designed to be by invitation only. A carefully curated group of invited members included only premium and platinum ticket holders, table sponsors and special guests. The dresses and suits of all men and women in attendance were code-appropriate, underscoring the meeting’s importance as a highlight of the summit calendar.

The event started at 20:00 with the welcome reception and awards registration, in a comfortable atmosphere for networking among other high-level guests. At 21:00, the doors were locked just as the awards began, with the focus on recognising everyone in attendance. 

Celebrating industry leadership

At the SiGMA Awards, many things are awarded for excellence in different categories which include sportsbook innovation, affiliate performance, payment solutions, media excellence and technology advancement. Each award refers to the measurable impact of an organisation and their operational excellence, in addition to having innovative operating strategies, all of which continue to support future business growth within the industry.
