Hall of Game

SiGMA South Asia

Created not just to recognise meaningful and impactful contributions, but to inspire next generations, the SiGMA Hall of Game accolade acknowledges real innovation – the kind that leads to genuine and enduring industry respect.

Each summit, SiGMA hosts a prestigious awards ceremony – the perfect evening for Hall of Game honourees to shine. In this edition, held in Colombo’s City of Dreams, we look towards South Asia – a region enjoying extraordinary momentum, with new markets tapping into the scale, speed and energy being driven by fast-paced digital and economic transformation. 

While its stories are still being written, foundations carefully laid, and new talent cultivated, it’s here, amongst these early building blocks that these early risers and frontier changemakers are leading the charge for change in South Asia’s growing tech and gaming sectors. We’re proud to help carry that legacy forward, celebrating sustainable and responsible evolution, and delivering trust and credibility.

The SiGMA South Asia Awards

Held in tandem with each of SiGMA’s eight summits, the SiGMA Awards bring deserving industry leaders into the spotlight, connecting a top-tier crowd through exceptional networking, and, with the support of the SiGMA Foundation, opening the doors to meaningful and impactful change.

Held on the eve of the summit at the exceptional City of Dreams resort in Sri Lanka, 20 categories carve out a dedicated space for recognition. In addition to titles highlighting efforts in affiliation, payment services, platform and product providers, Hall of Game rewards foundational leaders setting the pace for the future.
