SBC Summit sets compliance technology agenda for 2026 in Lisbon

SBC Summit has lined up a Compliance Technology track for Thursday, 1 October 2026, at Feira Internacional de Lisboa, with sessions focused on fraud prevention, illegal activity in new markets, EUDI wallets, digital identity, and the growing overlap between regulation and cyber security. For PSPs and operators, the useful bit is obvious: this is where approval rates, fraud controls, and market-entry compliance get discussed in the same room.

1. The Compliance Technology module sits inside the event’s Regulation & Compliance stage, alongside Global Regulations on Tuesday, 29 September and Player Protection on Wednesday, 30 September. SBC says the day will bring together operators, tech specialists, compliance and legal experts, plus fraud, risk, and cyber security leaders.
2. Rasmus Sojmark, founder and CEO of SBC, said: “The same technological advances that are helping businesses protect themselves are also changing the nature of the threats they face.” His point is the practical one: more tooling does not automatically mean better outcomes, and the module is meant to look at where technology actually makes a difference.
3. The first session is titled More Players, Less Risk: Maximising Approvals in a Regulated World. Tom Orton, Content and Payments Director at Rank Group; Tim De Borle, COO at Casumo; Liesbeth Oost, Head of ESG at JVH Gaming and Entertainment; and moderator Ana Pamplona, Doctor of Law, Lawyer, University Professor, and Co-founder of AMIG, will examine how technology can reduce block rates and false positives while improving approval rates for legitimate customers.
4. The discussion then moves to market expansion in Advancing into New Markets: What Are the Compliance Challenges? Speakers will include Miguel Luis, Head of Compliance at LeBull; Sissel Weitzhandler, Co-founder of EGARA; Ian Perrygrove, Risk Director at Kwiff; Raymond Wilson, Anti-Money Laundering Officer and Senior Criminal Records Manager at Midnite; and moderator Thees Buschman, Senior Consultant at Chevron Group. The session is set to look at how operators can identify and deal with illegal activity when entering new jurisdictions.
5. Other topics scheduled across the day include advances in fraud prevention, the impact of EUDI wallets and digital identity, and the rising link between regulation and cyber security. For high-risk businesses, that combination is the point: compliance is no longer just a legal function, because the fraud stack and the regulatory stack keep colliding.
