Detailed Review
History
iGaming AFRIKA began operations in 2022, founded by Jeremiah Maangi, who also serves as its CEO. The company was established with the explicit goal of providing Africa-focused gaming news, insights, and industry connections, filling a gap in a market that was previously served mainly by global outlets. Its primary platform, igamingafrika.com, aggregates and produces original content around sportsbook, casino, and lottery developments, with special attention to key markets such as Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda, and Senegal.
Products and Services
The company’s product suite extends beyond digital media. It runs the iGaming AFRIKA Magazine, a periodic publication featuring expert commentary and case studies. It also produces regular podcast episodes and webinars that cover topics from affiliate marketing to regulatory trends. In 2026, it launched the iGaming AFRIKA Summit (iGA Summit), a three-day event held at Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi, in strategic partnership with the African iGaming Alliance (AIA). The summit has already secured media partnerships with outlets such as Gaming NewsByte and exhibitors including .Bet, a full-cycle iGaming platform provider.
Market Position
iGaming AFRIKA is privately held and unfunded (as of 2026). It maintains a lean, agile team of 11–50 employees, with headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya. The company does not develop proprietary gaming software or operate its own betting platforms; instead, it acts as a media and events intermediary, connecting global suppliers (e.g., SPRIBE, Shacks Evolution Studios) with African operators. Its content is widely cited in industry publications and its founder frequently appears as a speaker at global events such as ICE Barcelona and SiGMA Africa.
The company’s growth trajectory reflects the broader expansion of regulated gambling in Africa. By focusing on both B2B and B2C audiences, iGaming AFRIKA has carved out a niche as a trusted source for regulatory updates, market analysis, and networking opportunities. Its flagship summit is designed to position Africa as a “new frontier” for global gaming investment, and it has already attracted participation from regulators, technology providers, and major operators.
