As gaming and digital entertainment markets continue to evolve across multiple regions, 2026 will see the SPiCE Series convene industry stakeholders through a sequence of regionally anchored events.

Across five events, spanning Egypt, Vietnam, Thailand, Georgia, and Papua New Guinea, the Series brings together regulators, operators, and investors to engage directly with the policy environments, commercial structures, and technology transitions defining each region.

SPiCE East Asia 2026 | 24 – 26 June, Mai House Saigon Hotel, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Vietnam is among Asia’s most commercially consequential markets, benefitting significantly from informed, on-the-ground perspectives. Ho Chi Minh City is one of the region’s most active commercial centres, making it a point of convergence for operators with interests that extend across the region. 

SPiCE East Asia will address this practical dimension directly, with a focus on compliance structures, payment infrastructure, localisation, and the shifting relationship between land-based and digital models. The conversation here is grounded in operational reality.

SPiCE Southeast Asia 2026 | 5 – 7 August, Bangkok, Thailand

Southeast Asia’s diversity is its defining characteristic and its central opportunity. No two jurisdictions move at the same pace or operate under the same logic.

SPiCE Southeast Asia returns to Bangkok to assess where regulatory momentum is building, where investment is flowing, and how international operators are adapting their strategies to markets that reward those who engage with them on their own terms.

SPiCE Central Asia 2026 | 24 – 25 September, Tbilisi, Georgia

Tbilisi has emerged as one of the more carefully constructed regulatory environments in the wider region. Georgia’s licensing frameworks and openness to international capital have drawn attention from diverse operators.

SPiCE Central Asia will draw together the operators, investors, and regulators for whom this market represents a genuine and immediate priority.

SPiCE International 2026 | 5 – 6 November, Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea is a country with natural resources, a developing tourism sector, and a government actively considering the role of regulated gaming in its long-term economic architecture. 

SPiCE International will unite senior executives and investors for considered dialogue on licensing, market structure, and what responsible entry into an emerging jurisdiction actually requires.
