BiS SiGMA: João Pessoa Hosts Major Technology and Entertainment Event

Brazil.- 25 June 2026 www.zonadeazar.com The Northeast has established itself as one of Brazil’s most dynamic regions in terms of digital service consumption, driven by advances in connectivity, the widespread adoption of smartphones, and the growth of the online economy. Against this backdrop, João Pessoa will host, on September 16 and 17, the first regional edition of BiS SiGMA, an event focused on discussions about innovation, technology, regulation, and the development of the digital entertainment industry.

Held at the Hotel Tauá, the event marks the arrival of one of the sector’s leading forums in the Northeast, reinforcing the region’s leading role in Brazil’s digital transformation. The choice of Paraíba’s capital is no coincidence: in addition to local economic growth, the city stands out for its tourism potential and its capacity to host major corporate events.

The relationship between Northeasterners and entertainment has always been marked by a passion for popular cultural events, festivals, music, and sports. Now, this tradition of engagement is taking on new forms with the digitization of content consumption and online experiences, creating opportunities for companies, investors, and technology professionals.

BiS SiGMA is expected to bring together market representatives, experts, authorities, and entrepreneurs to discuss trends, innovation, responsibility, regulation, and the economic impacts of an industry in constant evolution.
“João Pessoa has been establishing itself as a major hub for the development of Brazil’s betting and lottery sector. The strong presence of local operators, institutional support from LOTEP, and an environment conducive to dialogue and innovation have made the city a natural choice to host a BiS SiGMA event. It will be an excellent opportunity to bring the market, regulators, and industry leaders even closer together,” says Flavio Figueiredo, one of the founders of BiS SiGMA.

In addition to the discussions, the event is expected to boost the local economy, including the hospitality, food and beverage, transportation, and service sectors, strengthening João Pessoa’s position as a strategic destination for business tourism and for hosting events with national reach.
