iGaming News Announces Official Media Partnership with iGaming AFRIKA Summit 2026
iGaming News is delighted to confirm that we are now an official media partner of the iGaming AFRIKA Summit, taking place from 4–6 May 2026 at the Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi, Kenya.
This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting fast-growing and emerging markets, with Africa now firmly positioned as one of the most dynamic regions in the global iGaming landscape.
Across the continent, markets such as Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa continue to gather momentum, driven by rapid smartphone adoption, mobile-first payment ecosystems, and an increasingly engaged young adult population. This combination is creating the conditions for what many believe will become one of the industry’s most influential regions over the next decade.
Regulatory developments, improved infrastructure, and a surge in local operator and affiliate activity mean Africa is not simply an “emerging” market anymore — it is an accelerating one. The iGaming AFRIKA Summit arrives at a pivotal time, offering a much-needed platform to bring together decision-makers, innovators, suppliers, and regulators to shape the future of gaming on the continent. It is already being tipped as one of the most significant new additions to the industry calendar.
“Partnering with the iGaming AFRIKA Summit is a major milestone for us,” said Abigail Welch, Editor of iGaming News. “Africa’s iGaming sector is entering a period of remarkable growth, and this event will play a crucial role in bringing together the voices and ideas that are driving that evolution. We’re excited to help shine a spotlight on a region that is becoming increasingly important to the global industry” Welch continues.
