Gaming Tech Summit Africa 2025 brings together investors, innovators, and regulators to unlock Africa’s fastest-growing digital frontier.
With Africa’s gaming market forecasted to exceed $2.5 billion, the continent is fast emerging as the next big destination for digital investment. Gaming Tech Summit Africa 2025 (GTSA 2025), organized by Velex Advisory,is set to provide the definitive entry point for global investors, innovators, and policymakers looking to shape the future of African gaming and technology.
The summit, taking place at Safari Park Hotel, Nairobi, Kenya from 2nd to 6th June, will be a platform for accessing market intelligence, strategic partnerships, and high-potential ventures at the intersection of gaming, fintech, eSports, and immersive technologies.
Africa’s gaming industry is undergoing a transformation powered by mobile-first infrastructure, digital payments, and a tech-native youth population that makes up over 60% of the continent. While mature markets are approaching saturation, Africa represents a rare growth curve — one where local innovation meets massive consumer demand.
