COMPLETE iGAMING is set to launch its inaugural CiG iDEA Summit – a new high-level B2B forum taking place on Monday 14 September as part of the 2026 IAG EXPO at Newport World Resorts in Manila. The summit will examine the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape of online gaming across the Asia-Pacific region — with particular focus on the Philippines.

Curated for senior industry stakeholders, the iDEA Summit will provide insights and strategic analysis regarding recent policy and regulatory developments and what these signal for operators, suppliers, investors and regulators moving forward, especially against the current backdrop of significant changes in the Philippines market and the ongoing rollout of igaming in New Zealand.

Organized by COMPLETE iGAMING, sister publication of Inside Asian Gaming (IAG), the event will feature a carefully selected line-up of expert speakers addressing market structure, compliance, sustainability, technology and growth dynamics, anchored by a keynote address from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).

Specialist gaming law firm Arden Consult is the legal and regulatory partner for the event and will run a session detailing the current state of play for igaming in the Philippines.

Timed to coincide with a pivotal period for the online gaming sector, the CiG iDEA Summit recognizes the growing emphasis among jurisdictions on regulatory clarity, market stability and long-term industry development for online gaming.
