Enugu State is set to host one of Africa’s largest gatherings of gaming, technology and investment stakeholders as the Enugu Gaming Conference (EGC2026) holds from 29 to 30 July 2026, at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Enugu.

Organised by Events Arcade Solutions Limited in partnership with the Enugu State Gaming and Lotteries Commission (ESGC), the conference, themed “Code, Capital and Compliance: Unlocking Nigeria’s iGaming Tech Opportunity,” is expected to reinforce Enugu’s growing reputation as a preferred destination for technology, innovation and private investment under Governor Peter Mbah’s administration.

The conference will bring together regulators, government officials, gaming operators, technology companies, fintech leaders, investors, legal practitioners, startup founders, researchers and entrepreneurs from Nigeria and across Africa to explore emerging opportunities shaping the future of the continent’s digital gaming ecosystem.

Beyond the policy conversations, EGC2026 is expected to stimulate economic activities across Enugu as delegates patronise hotels, transportation services, restaurants and other businesses, while creating new opportunities for investment, enterprise development, innovation and job creation.
