Alea receives two nominations at the SiGMA Europe Awards 2026
The company has been nominated for Creative Excellence 2026 and Best Aggregator 2026.
Press release.- Alea has been shortlisted in two categories at the upcoming SiGMA Europe Awards 2026, taking place on May 27th at the Malta Casino during one of the busiest weeks of the igaming calendar.
The company has been nominated for Creative Excellence 2026 and Best Aggregator 2026. The recognition comes during a year of continued growth for Alea, as the company expands its aggregation platform across global markets while continuing to invest in product development, infrastructure, and international expansion.
A strong presence across NEXT.io Valletta
The awards also coincide with NEXT.io Valletta, where Alea will have a strong presence both on stage and across several side events taking place throughout the week.
Founder Alexandre Tomic will join the panel “Founders Anonymous – The Conversations That Don’t Make the Press Release,” focused on the realities behind building companies, from difficult decisions to fundraising and acquisitions.
On May 27, Alexandre will also moderate “The Day the Lights Go Out,” an interactive keynote built around a simulated regulatory crisis scenario challenging industry leaders to react in real time to the sudden loss of major markets.
Later that same day, he will present “The World Under One Lens,” a keynote exploring what aggregation-scale data reveals about how the world actually plays: which markets are growing faster than expected, how player behaviour differs across regions, and why some of the industry’s biggest assumptions no longer match reality.
Beyond the conference floor
Alongside the conference agenda, Alea will once again sponsor the Ice Bath & Yoga/Breathwork session led by Neil Agius ahead of the event opening, as well as co-host an exclusive CXO dinner together with NEXT.io at Contessa Restaurant inside The Phoenicia Malta.
To close the week, Alea will also attend the BGaming Charity Gala in support of DAR Bjorn, continuing the company’s involvement in community initiatives taking place across the Malta event week.
