SBC Summit Rio announces world champion Bebeto as keynote speaker

SBC Summit Rio, one of the most important iGaming events in Brazil, will have none other than Bebeto at the opening of the congress on February 26. The legendary Brazilian soccer player, world champion with the national team and state deputy for Rio de Janeiro, is the keynote speaker of the inaugural lecture “Celebrating Sports in Brazil”.

We are thrilled to welcome José “Bebeto” Gama de Oliveira, legendary Brazilian soccer player and FIFA World Cup champion, to SBC Summit Rio 2025!”, the organizers announced on their social media, giving the star the true importance he deserves.

Recognized for his renowned career as a goalscorer and iconic leadership, Bebeto will take the stage to share his journey, from his triumph in the World Cup to his impactful work as a state deputy in Rio de Janeiro.

Hear first-hand how Bebeto’s passion for Brazil’s sports culture and his personal story of success and reinvention continues to inspire generations in the Keynote Session: Celebrating Sports in Brazil. This talk is a must-see event highlight!”, say the organizers.

SBC Summit Rio has quickly established itself as the must-attend event in Brazil and, for its 2025 edition, will be held at Riocentro, one of the largest convention centers in Latin America, covering an area of 70,000 square meters and welcoming more than 15,000 visitors.

SBC Summit Rio is one of the largest industry events in Brazil. Last year’s inaugural edition exceeded all expectations. With a projected 3,000 attendees and an actual number that exceeded 4,000, the event set a strong precedent for growth.

In addition, this year will see the addition of two new Summits: the Affiliate Leaders Summit and the Payment Expert Summit. Both segments saw significant growth in attendance, allowing SBC to expand its focus with dedicated areas in the exhibition space and bespoke content. As an added bonus, this year’s event coincides with the start of Carnival week in Rio.
