Gentoo Media CEO Jonas Warrer says the annual iGB Affiliate event is more than just another date on the iGaming calendar describing it ‘as a vital opportunity for the company to reconnect, learn, and chart the road ahead.’

“For Gentoo Media, it’s first and foremost an opportunity to connect with our partners and peers,” Warrer explained. “It’s about maintaining strong relationships, building new ones, and staying close to what’s happening in the industry. We always come back from iGB Affiliate with new ideas and perspectives on the industry — along with a clearer view of the trends and developments that may shape it in the time ahead.”

With the 2026 edition set to be 19% larger than last year’s, Warrer believes the event’s continued expansion reflects the health and momentum of the iGaming sector. “The industry is expanding, and it’s only natural that a well-established event like iGB Affiliate grows with it. That growth brings more people to the table and creates room for new conversations, connections, and ideas, all of which benefit those of us working in iGaming,” he said.

As the first major industry event of the year, Warrer sees iGB Affiliate as a springboard for the months ahead. “It can help set the tone for 2026 by giving us a good opportunity to reconnect with partners and build new relationships,” he noted. “It’s also a chance for more operators to get to know what we do — the quality of our websites and campaigns, and how we help them reach new players.”

Discussing broader industry trends, Warrer highlighted the rising importance of brand strength and trust. “Players are becoming more informed and selective in how they choose where to play,” he said. “Platforms like AskGamblers perform best when we genuinely help users make better choices by focusing on transparency, fair rankings, real player feedback, and highlighting safe, high-quality operators.”

On emerging markets, Warrer pointed to Brazil and Latin America as key growth regions, alongside renewed momentum in North America. “We are only at the beginning of what the Brazilian market could become,” he said.

Looking ahead to iGB Affiliate 2026, Warrer summed up the value of participation: “I’m looking forward to reconnecting with partners and having the kinds of conversations that spark new ideas and perspectives. Collaboration has always been a big part of our success, and iGB Affiliate is a great setting to strengthen those relationships and build new ones.”
