conference
In an effort to break new ground, the SiGMA Group is heading to Manila this year with B2B and B2C brands and a number of land-based exhibitors, bringing our extensive western network closer to Asian suppliers, operators and affiliates. With the approval of (PAGCOR - Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation), the event will be held at SMX, Manila's largest exhibition center.
THE CENTER OF THE GAMBLING INDUSTRY IN ASIA
"The Philippine gaming industry, both land-based and online, has grown rapidly over the past few years, and outgoing Chairman (PAGCOR - Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation) Andrea Domingo has led the way in driving growth and success.
Under her 6-year leadership, PAGCOR began licensing online gaming companies that offered their services offshore."
A NEW ERA FOR PAGCOR
"In August 2022, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. swore in the new board of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), appointing businessman and close associate Alejandro H. Tengco (Alejandro H. Tengco) as chairman. Alejandro H. Tengco (Alejandro H. Tengco). Tengco will succeed Andrea Domingo.
As PAGCOR walks a fine line between operator and regulator, Tengco will have some tough decisions to make in the coming months, including whether to proceed with plans to sell its 47 casinos. While those plans were initially shelved due to the health care crisis, PAGCOR is now facing renewed calls to revisit the separation between operator and regulator."
