Nordic Network takes five executives to SiGMA World Rome 2026

Nordic Network Ltd will attend SiGMA World 2026 in Rome from 2 to 5 November 2026 with five members of its executive team, who will be based at stand H3-3005. The company says it will use the week for meetings with operators, affiliates and partners, and to discuss its affiliate business and its new division, Nordic Partners Gaming.

## Nordic Network SiGMA World 2026: who is going and where they'll be

The Nordic Network Ltd delegation will be led by Håvard Lehn, Co-founder and Group CEO. Lehn will be accompanied by Fabian Broich, Director of Nordic Partners Gaming; Anders Abrahamsen, Head of External Partnerships; Anders Loe, Affiliate Manager; and Victoria Kalemis, Head of Finance. The group has confirmed that its operational base during the congress will be the stand H3-3005.

The official presence covers the full window of SiGMA World, from 2 to 5 November 2026, and is aimed at face-to-face commercial contacts with operators, affiliates and existing and prospective partners. The company emphasised it will use the event agenda to present recent activity and upcoming plans around its affiliate business and Nordic Partners Gaming (NPG).

## What Nordic Partners Gaming will present in Rome

Nordic Partners Gaming is central to several of the scheduled meetings. The company has outlined two concrete activity lines it will bring to SiGMA:

• commercial discussions about the affiliate business and collaboration models with operators and affiliate networks;

• information about the recent acquisition of a Counter-Strike 2 team and a documentary-series format for YouTube covering the team’s progress.

Fabian Broich, Director of Nordic Partners Gaming, summarised the strategy in the statement:

“Esports and iGaming are moving closer together, but a lot of operators still aren’t sure how to work with gaming audiences in a genuine way. That’s exactly the conversation we want to be having at SiGMA. We’ll also be sharing more details about our upcoming documentary following the team’s journey, which is something we’re really excited about.” — Fabian Broich

Beyond editorial and content focus, Nordic Network has indicated it intends to discuss sponsorship and activation models with gaming audiences in face-to-face meetings during the show.

## CEO statement on the Nordic Network SiGMA World 2026 presence

Håvard Lehn, Co-founder and Group CEO of Nordic Network Ltd, explained why the show is a priority for the group:

“SiGMA World is one of the most important weeks in the calendar for us. It’s where you sit down face to face with the people you already work with, and meet the ones you’d like to. It’s been a big year for the group. We’ve launched Nordic Partners Gaming, invested in a Counter-Strike 2 team and built new partnerships across the industry, so there’s loads to talk about. If you’re there, come and find us.” — Håvard Lehn

Lehn’s comment lists in a single sentence the group’s recent actions: the launch of Nordic Partners Gaming, the investment in a Counter-Strike 2 team and the formation of new industry partnerships.

## Details on the team acquisition and planned documentary

Nordic Network said the acquisition involves a Counter-Strike 2 team valued by its international ranking: the team sits at position #131 in the world ranking. The company plans to follow the team’s competitive progress and publish a documentary series on YouTube that will show its development and activities.

The documentary narrative will also serve as an asset in commercial conversations with operators interested in esports audiences, and as an example of the iGaming–esports convergence the firm aims to exploit.

## Nordic Partners Gaming at AffPapa Conference Cancun and role as Strategic Esports Partner

Nordic Partners Gaming is also scheduled to appear at the AffPapa Conference Cancun in November 2026, where it will act as Strategic Esports Partner. At that event, according to the statement, NPG intends to set up an Esports Zone on the congress exhibition floor.

The AffPapa appearance complements the SiGMA agenda and reflects the company’s strategy to position itself both at iGaming trade shows and at forums specialising in affiliates and esports.

## What this means for operators and affiliates

For operators and affiliate networks, the presence of a broad executive team —including the affiliate director and head of finance— signals that Nordic Network is seeking to close commercial deals and content partnerships in Rome. The company has chosen to combine esports activations with affiliate propositions and will bring materials and conversations to SiGMA oriented around that combination.

Those wishing to meet the team should go to stand H3-3005 during SiGMA World. The formal meeting schedule is not published in the statement, so meeting requests must be arranged directly with Nordic Network or its representatives at the show.
