Gaming & Technology Expo continues to solidify its position as the leading business platform for the gaming sector in Latin America, with its upcoming stops: Gat Expo Mexico, on August 27 and 28 in Mexico City, and Gat Expo Bogotá, on September 25 in Colombia. Gat makes its debut in the heart of Mexico with a multifaceted event tailored to an evolving market, filled with opportunities and challenges to capitalize on. Colombia remains a hub of industry development, and Gat Expo Bogotá offers an annual showroom already anchored in the industry's calendar, with a strong focus on the growth and stability of the land-based segment in the country.
GAT EXPO CDMX – AUGUST 27 AND 28 - Gat Expo Mexico will be held at Expo Santa Fe; a multifunctional venue located in the modern financial district of Mexico City. The current landscape of the gaming industry—its expansion, widespread access to mobile internet, and ongoing regulations that will update the framework across all verticals—make Gat Expo Cdmx a golden opportunity to enter this vital economic sector, invest, and build new business alliances in a powerful market connected to the entire American continent.
In Mexico, Gat Expo will expand the scope of its components. The first is Gat Academy Cdmx, held during both days of the event. On Wednesday, August 27, a full day of conferences and panels will focus on knowledge updates, cutting-edge technology, regulatory reforms, and key topics for the local industry. On August 28, Gat Expo Cdmx will offer a series of specialized workshops, providing attendees with high-value training in strategic areas: online betting, land-based casinos, Fintech, and regulation.
At Stage 1, experts will address trends in digital payments, cryptocurrencies, cybersecurity, Esports betting, instant messaging betting, and the preparation of sports platforms ahead of the 2026 Fifa World Cup. Meanwhile, Stage 2 will focus on land-based operations, with content on sensory and physical casino design, omnichannel integration, sportsbooks, next-gen customer loyalty, illegal gambling prevention, and corporate social responsibility programs. This is a must-attend day to update knowledge, build partnerships, and boost business in a Mexican market undergoing rapid transformation.
The Latin American Summit of Gaming Associations will take place on Thursday, August 28, with the participation of associations from Mexico, Colombia, Peru, the Dominican Republic, and other federations led by Fecoljuegos and Aieja. The summit aims to create the Latin American Network of Gaming Associations (Relazar), reaching consensus in an institutional space of dialogue, cooperation, and representation. It promotes the exchange of actions, experiences, plans, and regulatory achievements to harmonize operations and regulations in the region while promoting responsible gaming and legality.
The highlight of Gat Expo Cdmx is undoubtedly the trade show on Thursday, August 28, starting at 10:00 a.m., which will gather iconic brands and companies from the land-based and online gaming sectors with exponential growth in Mexico, Latin America, and the Caribbean in recent years. It will also feature developers of technology, cybersecurity, and payment gateways integrated into the gaming ecosystem. High-level networking activities will also take place.
GAT EXPO BOGOTÁ – SEPTEMBER 25 - Meanwhile, Gat Expo Bogotá continues to position itself as the go-to event for the Colombian market in the final quarter of the year. Scheduled for Thursday, September 25, this one-day event will bring together operators, suppliers, and high-level executives for eight hours of strategic networking, portfolio updates, and deal-making.
The previous edition of Gat Bogotá featured 25 exhibiting brands and executives from over 25 countries. In 2025, a significant increase in the presence of companies from the land-based, online betting, tech platform, and specialized services sectors is expected, given the event’s importance in Colombia’s business calendar and the interest of multinationals operating across Latin America.
As part of Gat Expo Bogotá 2025, the first stop of the Esports tournament will take place, marking the beginning of the joint initiative between Gat Esports, Colombian Official Esports, and the Colombian Olympic Committee, formalized in a tripartite alliance last April during Gat Expo Cartagena.
José Aníbal Aguirre, Ceo of Gat, invites the industry to take part in Gat Expo Mexico, taking place on August 27 and 28: “We aim to reaffirm our role in Mexico as a unifying force within the Latin American gaming industry. In the Aztec country, we seek to bring together providers, manufacturers, licensees, and operators of both land-based and online casinos, to promote legal gaming and an ecosystem driven by shared goals of commercial growth and corporate social responsibility. We also aim to attract new investments and productive mergers of technology and marketing.
Our regular exhibitors in Colombia already understand the value of showcasing their brand at Gat Expo Bogotá. This time, we’re especially excited to welcome Raza Carreras from the Dominican Republic as a Platinum Sponsor, showing keen interest in the Acdv vertical of betting on races and virtual sports, currently being promoted by Coljuegos for the retail segment.”
