DAY 2 1

Day 2 of SiGMA Euro-Med 2025 in Malta is set to deliver another packed schedule, placing inclusivity and cutting-edge technology at the forefront of the global gaming conversation.

With thousands of delegates gathering at the Mediterranean Conference Centre, the spotlight will be on talent, ethics, and the disruptive power of innovation.

One of the day’s most anticipated discussions will be the “Women in Gaming: Unlocking the Potential” panel. The session will confront one of the industry’s most pressing challenges: the underrepresentation of female leaders and how this impacts growth, culture, and innovation.

Panelists will examine generational shifts, workplace inclusivity, and how smarter recruitment strategies can unlock untapped potential. Speakers include:

  • Julia Weygandt, Director at Zelda Global
  • Valentina Synenka, Board Member at Symphony Solutions
  • Gabriela Tussolini, Co-Founder & Consultant at The Garage
  • Margherita Pavoni, Senior Compliance Counsel & Deputy MLRO at EveryMatrix
  • Christine Burlingham, Affiliate Manager at MediaTroopers
  • Jillian Dingwall, Senior News Writer at SiGMA Group

Together, they will share strategies to win the ongoing “talent war” and highlight the benefits of reshaping gaming into a more diverse and future-ready ecosystem.

Equally impactful will be the panel on “Gambling with AI: Innovation, Ethics, and the Black Mirror Effect.” This forward-looking session will explore both the promise and the peril of artificial intelligence in gaming. Experts will discuss operational risks such as addiction, data privacy, and player profiling, alongside legal challenges brought on by the EU AI Act and GDPR. The panel will feature:

  • Kris Galloway, Head of iGaming Product at Sumsub
  • Kush Desai, Founder & CEO at Source Code Lab
  • Sharon Xuereb, Senior Associate at Camilleri Preziosi
  • Jaguar-Adva Gal, CEO at Jaguar Reg&Comp
