The SBC Summit is set to introduce a brand new Crypto and Blockchain conference track, spotlighting how the gambling industry is putting digital assets to practical use.
The dedicated track will take place on Thursday, 1 October 2026, at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa in Lisbon, Portugal.
Operators, payments leaders, fintech specialists, blockchain professionals and Web3 experts will all be brought together under one roof for the event.
Sessions throughout the day will examine where blockchain technologies are delivering real-world value, the challenges surrounding their adoption, and what comes next for the industry.
The Crypto and Blockchain track will feature as part of the Payment Expert Summit stage, sitting alongside two other dedicated tracks running earlier in the week.
The Fintech track is scheduled for Tuesday, 29 September, while the Global Payment Compliance track will follow on Wednesday, 30 September.
Across the day’s sessions, attendees will explore how operators can safely integrate crypto payments and the technologies enabling faster and more secure transactions.
Delegates will also examine what the wider industry can learn from crypto brands specifically regarding customer acquisition, engagement and retention strategies.
The Payments Speed Networking initiative will give attendees the opportunity to make a dozen targeted introductions within a single hour, maximising connection efficiency.
Smart Connect will facilitate prequalified meetings between crypto and blockchain specialists and senior operator representatives, ensuring high-value conversations take place throughout the event.
Access to SBC Summit’s conference is included with Conference, Business and VIP Passes, though Business or VIP Passes are required for compliance-focused networking initiatives.
The full SBC Summit runs from 29 September to 1 October 2026, welcoming the iGaming industry to the Feira Internacional de Lisboa for three days of focused content and networking.
