Casino Plus CEO Evan Spytma Honored with ‘Hall of Game’ Award at SiGMA Asia 2026

Gaming events authority group SiGMA has honored Evan Spytma, Chief Executive Officer of Casino Plus — one of the Philippines’ leading entertainment and gaming platforms duly licensed and accredited by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) — with a “Hall of Game” award, citing his decades of experience in gaming, technology, and hospitality as a driving force behind the country’s digital entertainment industry.

This recognition underscores Casino Plus’ continuing influence on the gaming industry and reflects the gaming platform’s continued commitment to innovation, responsible gaming, and delivering world-class digital entertainment experiences for Filipino players.

In his acceptance speech during the SiGMA Asia Awards 2026 on June 1, Spytma extended his gratitude for the accolade, describing it not only as a personal milestone but a “representation of the journey that started a long time ago.” 

“This milestone is both humbling and deeply reassuring. I could not have done this alone — not without the game developers, partners, and government regulators who share our commitment to responsible gaming. We know how demanding this industry can be, but that challenge is precisely what pushes us to do better. At Casino Plus, while we strive to provide a healthy playing environment, we constantly remind our players to stay in control and play responsibly — and that is how we truly win the game,” said Casino Plus CEO Spytma. 

The honor recognizes industry leaders whose vision, innovation, and leadership have shaped and advanced the global gaming landscape.

“By inducting these visionaries into the SiGMA Hall of Game, the awards celebrate those whose lasting impact continues to influence and inspire regulatory evolution on a global scale, highlighting the importance of regulatory excellence and recognising the leaders behind the scenes,” SiGMA said on its website. 

Spytma was also a speaker at the SiGMA Asia Summit in Manila on June 2, which tackled responsible gaming, rising revenue streams, SEOs in the age of artificial intelligence, and the evolving regulatory dynamics in the Philippines and different parts of the world. Around 16,000 tech companies, gaming operators, regulators, and their affiliates attended the event.
