One Month Until Sports Betting West Africa+ Summit 2026 & Gaming Event Francophone Africa 2026

With only one month remaining, final preparations are underway for West Africa's premier gaming gatherings: the 11th annual Sports Betting West Africa+ (SBWA+) Summit 2026 and the 2nd annual Gaming Event Francophone Africa (GEFA) 2026.

Taking place from 14 –16 October 2026 at the refined King Fahd Palace Hôtel in Dakar, Senegal, this co-located event will serve as a central hub for senior operators, regulatory authorities, fintech leaders, legal advisers, and technology innovators across West and Francophone Africa.

Over three days, attendees will engage directly with senior industry professionals to address regional licensing pathways, low-bandwidth game optimisation, cross-border payment integration, and mobile player acquisition strategies that shape the continent's gaming ecosystem.

Kicking off with the official SBWA+ Welcoming & Eventus Awards Evening on Day One, followed by expert-led discussions and executive networking across both Days Two and Three, this summit will offer a timely platform to develop commercial partnerships and gain actionable market intelligence.
