NEXT Focus: Startups & Investment is a full-day summit dedicated to innovation and capital within the iGaming sector, running as part of NEXT Summit Valletta week. Founders, operators, venture capitalists, and strategic investors gather for candid discussions, live deal clinics, startup pitches, and actionable deep-dives on funding trends and scaling strategies. The event benefits from a strategic alliance with BettingStartups to further boost the startup ecosystem in attendance. It serves as a bridge between early-stage iGaming companies and the capital and networks they need to grow, providing a rare environment where operators and investors can engage directly with the next generation of gaming innovators.
