After the recent news regarding the relocation of ICE and iGB Live, SBC organisers have also followed suit with an announcement that next year’s show will now take place in Lisbon. The new venue will be able to host almost double the number of exhibitors present at this year’s show which is not only a testament to the success of the show, but also the resounding growth of the online gaming sector.
