Delegates from 85% of regulated jurisdictions registered for ICE Africa

The geographical spread represents 85 percent of the African nations in which gambling is regulated and underlines the event’s status as the pan-African event for the industry.  ICE Africa will also provide a platform for 72 exhibitors, 26 from outside Africa and provide 15 hours of learning delivered by a talent pool of 60+ thought leaders.

Daniel Tyler, Senior Conference Producer at Clarion Gaming, said: “I’m delighted to be able to confirm the attendance of delegates from so many countries which are at the forefront of the development of regulated gambling on the continent of Africa. ICE Africa provides a professional meeting place for the entire A-Z of African gaming and an opportunity for regulators to meet with the sector and together help shape the future of the industry across the continent. The ICE brand is recognised throughout the world for its ability to bring stakeholders together in this way and I’m confident that the discussions and debates that will take place on and off the show floor at ICE Africa will be fundamental to the development of the gambling sector."  

John Kamara, the brand ambassador for ICE Africa and one of the most respected thought leaders across the pan-African industry, believes next week’s event will help develop a deeper understanding of the contribution gaming can make in relation to the development of national economies. He confirmed: “By bringing the contributions made by gambling to the forefront of the debate we can have meaningful conversations concerning the far ranging benefits produced by a robust, socially responsible gaming industry and what that means in terms of employment, taxation and contributions to GDP. These are very exciting and dynamic times for  the industry in Africa and I am confident that ICE Africa will play a pivotal role in its future development.”
