What Lies Ahead for the Ugandan and East African iGaming Industry?
The Promise of the Ugandan iGaming Landscape
Recent reports from industry analysts at Statista reveal a promising trajectory for Uganda’s iGaming sector. With a youth demographic comprising over 78% of the population, and smartphone penetration soaring to nearly 27%, there’s a palpable enthusiasm for digital entertainment. The Ugandan government’s embrace of digital initiatives, as reported by The East African, has further catalysed this growth, fostering an environment ripe for iGaming innovation. As highlighted in a study by PwC, Uganda’s stable economy and expanding middle class add to the allure for iGaming operators, positioning the nation as a hotspot for investment in the region.
