Gaming's Future Unfolds in Tashkent: Stakeholders Shape a Regulated Era

The inaugural SPiCE Central Asia 2025 is set to take place in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, on 25–26 September 2025, offering a rare opportunity for industry stakeholders to engage with the rapidly evolving gaming market in Central Asia. As regulatory frameworks begin to take shape, the summit aims to foster collaboration between gaming operators, technology providers, and policymakers to guide the sector’s sustainable development. With Uzbekistan positioning itself as a key player in the global gaming industry, the event is expected to provide insights into the market’s dynamics and potential for long-term growth [1].

Industry leaders are anticipated to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the Central Asian gaming landscape. George Mamulaishvili, Head of Administration at the Georgian Gambling Association and a featured speaker at the summit, emphasized the importance of open dialogue between regulators and operators. He noted that well-balanced regulation can stimulate the legal segment of the gaming industry, while excessive restrictions may inadvertently create opportunities for the illegal market to expand. According to Mamulaishvili, collaborative engagement with regulators is more effective than isolated efforts by individual operators or suppliers [1].

The SPiCE Central Asia 2025 agenda includes a range of key topics relevant to the industry’s development. Discussions will cover responsible gaming practices, CIS gaming market dynamics, player experience and gamification, digital assets in gaming, and insights into emerging markets in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. These sessions aim to provide actionable strategies for operators and regulators to promote safety, sustainability, and innovation in the gaming ecosystem [1].

The event is also expected to facilitate networking among leading industry experts, including Asad Kambarov, CEO/CMO at iGlow Media; Bibigul Baidildanova, Legal Counsel; and Džangar Jesenov, Head of Compliance at Endorphina, among others. These professionals will contribute to discussions on regulatory frameworks, compliance strategies, and market development, offering attendees a comprehensive view of the opportunities and challenges in the Central Asian gaming sector [1].

With just six weeks until the event, industry leaders are encouraged to secure their participation in what promises to be a transformative gathering. The summit is not only a platform for knowledge exchange but also a strategic opportunity to forge partnerships and influence the future of gaming in one of the world’s most dynamic emerging markets. By bringing together diverse stakeholders, SPiCE Central Asia 2025 aims to foster a mature, responsible, and sustainable gaming environment across the region [1].
