TL;DR — SBC Summit 2026 in Lisbon runs 29 September to 1 October, the same three days as G2E 2026 in Las Vegas. SCCG Management will be represented at both: Booth 4020, an Open Office on 28 September and its fifth annual party on 29 September in Las Vegas, and on the ground at SBC Summit Lisbon on behalf of client partners. Meetings in Lisbon can be booked directly.
SCCG Take — Two of the industry’s largest events now fall in the same week on two continents, which forces a choice on most firms and splits the market’s attention. Being represented at both is the point: a European counterparty should not have to wait until the next cycle because the calendar collided.

This year the industry’s calendar has done something awkward. SBC Summit 2026 runs 29 September to 1 October at Feira Internacional de Lisboa and the MEO Arena in Lisbon. G2E 2026 runs 29 September to 1 October at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas. The same three days, eight time zones apart.
For most firms that is a choice. For our client partners it should not be, which is why SCCG will be represented on both sides of the Atlantic that week.
SCCG will be represented at SBC Summit on behalf of several client partners, taking meetings across the European market with operators, suppliers, regulators and investors.
If your business is in Europe and your week is in Lisbon rather than Las Vegas, that is now a conversation we can have in person rather than one that waits for the next cycle.
The Lisbon diary is open now, and the week fills in the order people ask.

When the two biggest events of the fall land on the same three days, eight time zones apart, most firms pick one and tell half the market to wait. We built SCCG to be the firm that doesn't force that trade-off—our partners get represented in Vegas and Lisbon, same week, no gaps.
SCCG angle: If you're launching in Europe or need operator intros in Lisbon while your competitors are all in Vegas, we're scheduling face-to-face meetings now with the European buyers, regulators, and investors who'll be there. That's 30 years of network, active in both markets, same week.
