BCLB to Gambling Regulatory Authority: The Fruits of the Gambling Control Act 2025

iGaming AFRIKA is excited to announce an upcoming webinar scheduled for April 10, 2026 titled “BCLB to Gambling Regulatory Authority: The Fruits of the Gambling Control Act 2025.” The transition from the Betting Control and Licensing Board (BCLB) to the proposed Gambling Regulatory Authority marked a significant moment for governance, oversight, and industry accountability in the country.

The Gambling Control Act 2025 introduces a new regulatory framework aimed at strengthening supervision of gaming activities, improving licensing procedures, and reinforcing responsible gambling measures. The shift toward a dedicated regulatory authority reflects broader efforts to modernize Kenya’s gambling landscape while responding to concerns around taxation, enforcement, and player protection.

Participants will gain insights into the policy objectives behind the Act, the anticipated impact on market governance, and how industry stakeholders can prepare for the evolving regulatory environment.
