50 INDUSTRY INSIDER: MARK MCGUINNESS


As we enter 2026, there’s a definite buzz in the air across the iGaming world. With ICE and iGB Affiliate both landing in Barcelona this month, there’s a real sense that the industry is not only ready to hit the ground running, but to sprint forward.


If last year was about adaptation – navigating shifting regulations, recalibrating marketing strategies, and embedding responsible play into the very fabric of product design – then this year feels more like one of acceleration. Developers are quietly hinting at fresh innovations in AI-driven personalisation and safer gaming tools that don’t feel intrusive but genuinely improve player experience. Operators, for their part, are balancing scale with sustainability, investing in platforms that can flex with local compliance while maintaining seamless global reach. Affiliates? You’re at the sharp end of audience insight, and your ability to pivot with new acquisition channels will be more valuable than ever.


Looking ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be the year we see movement on several fronts. Regulatory frameworks will continue to evolve across key markets, with digital identity and payment reforms set to reshape onboarding and retention strategies. Cryptocurrency and digital payment solutions will keep nudging their way into mainstream discussions, not as a novelty, but as part of the broader conversation about transparency and trust.


But for all the forecasts and forward planning, the immediate focus is Barcelona. ICE remains the industry’s beating heart, a place to reconnect, debate, and demo the future. And running alongside it, iGB Affiliate offers unrivalled opportunities to explore performance partnerships in an ever-complex acquisition landscape.


In this issue we have previews of both events taking place in Barcelona this month, and I look forward to seeing you there. After all, there’s nothing quite like a face-to-face meeting to turn industry chatter into real understanding and actionable results.
