Casa Italia To Launch At ICE Barcelona 2027, Connecting Italy’s Gaming Ecosystem With The World

Casa Italia will make its debut at ICE Barcelona 2027, taking place from 18–20 January at Fira Barcelona Gran Via.

Developed by IGE – Italian Gaming Expo & Conference and GN Media in strategic partnership with WorldGaming, the organisation behind ICE, the initiative aims to give Italy’s regulated gaming ecosystem a dedicated platform for international representation, dialogue and networking.

More than an exhibition pavilion, Casa Italia will serve as a meeting point for industry representatives, institutions, regulatory authorities and trade associations. The initiative is designed to showcase Italy’s industrial and technological capabilities, encourage public-private dialogue and create opportunities for international collaboration.

Casa Italia To Focus On Regulation And Innovation

The programme will feature discussions on regulated markets, innovation, consumer protection, sustainability and responsible gaming, alongside dedicated networking opportunities.

Casa Italia will also connect with ICE initiatives intended to encourage dialogue within the international regulatory community.

Alessio Crisantemi, Founder of IGE and Head of GN Media, said:

“With Casa Italia, we want to give an entire ecosystem a shared home and a stronger international voice. Italy is not only a major market, but also a source of industrial and regulatory expertise. Our ambition is to turn participation at ICE into a lasting platform connecting businesses, institutions and international markets – not a one-off showcase, but a project capable of creating value over time.”

WorldGaming Partnership Supports International Collaboration

Stuart Hunter, Managing Director of Events at WorldGaming, said:

“Italy is a major force in European gaming, and Casa Italia offers a valuable opportunity to connect its expertise with ICE’s global community.

“Through this initiative, we aim to encourage new exchanges between businesses, institutions and regulators, strengthening the dialogue and growth opportunities that make ICE a key international meeting place.”

Casa Italia will be officially inaugurated on Monday 18 January 2027 at 12:00.

Conceived as a long-term initiative under the partnership between IGE and GN Media and WorldGaming and ICE, the project aims to strengthen connections between Italy’s regulated gaming market and the wider international industry.
