Sigma Africa: What to Expect in 2026

What is SiGMA Africa?

Sigma Africa is a leading international conference and exhibition focused on the African iGaming and lottery technology market. The event attracts senior decision-makers and last edition in 2025 saw around 3,000 delegates, 800 operators, 150+ speakers, 250+ exhibitors/sponsors & 450 affiliates, making it a high-value forum for strategic discussions rather than purely promotional activity.

With Africa continuing to see rapid digital adoption, regulatory evolution, and increasing demand for secure gaming platforms, Sigma Africa has positioned itself as a key meeting point for stakeholders looking to understand market realities and future opportunities. The event covers a wide range of topics including regulation, compliance, technology innovation, payment infrastructure, player protection, and market expansion strategies. This will be the 4th edition of the event in Africa and Skilrock looks forward to the show as a key lottery & iGaming supplier to the African region.
