DEIB at ICE 2025
DEIB as part of your business growth and successful expansion strategy
Continuing ICE’s efforts to raise awareness of the importance of DEIB in the gambling industry, and following the open consultation with the industry in August-September 2024, ICE Barcelona is stepping up its initiatives to offer itself as a platform for advocacy and to effect change.
We have planned three days full of educational sessions, interactive workshops and networking meet-ups – all adapted to your busy schedules at the show. Follow the link below to RSVP.
ICE DEIB Allyship Programme
Are you passionate about, and invested in, effecting change and showing support for DEIB in our industry?
Do you have access, credibility and trust within various underrepresented networks and within your organisations to advocate for change and show up as an ally?
If so, please join ICE Barcelona’s DEIB Allyship programme to help us spread the message and enjoy a number of benefits, including DEIB Ally positioning as part of the ICE campaign and passes/invitations to some exclusive ICE events for you and your team members from underrepresented groups.

Allyship meet-ups
Launched successfully last year, these three networking events celebrate inclusion, bringing together those from underrepresented groups and their allies to benefit from the power of shared experiences (on both the personal and professional levels) and networking to indicate role models and connect with like-minded professionals.
Each highlights an underrepresented group (People of Colour on Monday, 20 January, LGBTQ+ on Tuesday, 21 January and Women on Wednesday, 22 January). Our meet-ups are open to all for 60 minutes of connecting, laughing, socializing and being inspired.
DEIB Training and Education
We want to make DEIB education as accessible as possible to a diversity of people attending ICE, whether you are a company leader in charge of your business’s long-term success, a sales or business development executive whose priority at ICE is to drive your company’s commercial success, a member of an underrepresented group looking for practical skills to up your ante or build your network, or a DEIB professional driving the inclusion strategy in your organization.
We recognize that people experience ICE differently, have different priorities and responsibilities at the event and manage their time differently.
For that reason, instead of one day seminar as organized in previous years, we will be offering shorter sessions, spread across the three days of the event, at various times of the day and offering different types of education:

Embracing Diversity to Drive Innovation in the Gambling Industry
The gambling industry has a huge opportunity to expand into new territories and player segments, often reaching audiences of different races, genders, and cultures. To succeed, companies must embrace diversity—not only in their marketing but also within their teams—as this drives forward innovation and better reflects the lived experiences of these groups. Through creating inclusive campaigns, promoting diverse leadership, and offering user-friendly apps with seamless features like instant deposits and withdrawals along with unique sports offerings, the industry can better connect with a broader global audience.
