Denis Dzyubenko, business development manager in Ukraine, will lead new business activity for SiGMA Group, which currently produces large scale events in both Malta, Europe, and Manila, the Philippines – SiGMA Expo for iGaming and AIBC Summit for AI, blockchain, and emerging technologies. The company also organises several satellite networking events, including ?iGathering Moscow, taking place 21st April 2020.?

Dzyubenko commented, “In Ukraine, we’re seeing emerging markets growing fast, supported by great IT infrastructure and skills in the population, and this is also true of neighbouring CIS countries. There’s boundless opportunities in the tech sectors right now, and with Ukraine expected to update gambling legislation later this year, it will make it easier for international companies to set up their businesses here”.

The country is already home to a solid affiliate marketing industry supporting the online gambling sector, and this will be a key market for SiGMA Group to tap into as the affiliate side of the business grows.? Other new business areas include operators, startups, and blockchain companies.
