RegTech Africa 2026 Unites Global Leaders to Shape Africa's Digital Financial Future
The 2026 RegTech Africa Conference & Expo will take place in Abuja, Nigeria, from 20th to 22nd May. Organised under the patronage of the Nigerian Vice President's Office, the event aims to gather global leaders in policy, finance, and technology. Its focus is on shaping trusted digital financial systems, cross-border trade, and regulatory innovation across the continent.
The conference will operate under the theme 'Building Trust, Infrastructure and Policy for a Borderless Economy' and expects to draw thousands of attendees from Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America.
The three-day event will feature a mix of high-level discussions and practical sessions. These include strategic ministerial dialogues, closed-door executive roundtables, and investment-focused breakout meetings. Technology showcases and curated networking platforms will also form part of the programme.
A key highlight will be the Global Startup World Cup Tournament – Regional Challenge. African startups will compete for a $1,000,000 investment prize by pitching their ideas to an international panel. The competition offers a major opportunity for early-stage companies to secure funding and exposure.
The conference is hosted in partnership with the Presidential Committee on Economic & Financial Inclusion (PreCEFI) and the Inter-Governmental Action Group against Money Laundering in West Africa (GIABA). While GIABA has focused on traditional anti-money laundering training in recent years, its involvement signals growing interest in digital financial infrastructure.
Sponsorship and partnership opportunities remain open for public and private sector organisations, multinational corporations, and technology firms. Interested parties can register or explore collaboration options through the official website or by contacting [email protected].
Registration for the 2026 RegTech Africa Conference & Expo is now live. The event will provide a platform for policymakers, investors, and innovators to discuss the future of digital finance and regulation. Further details are available at www.regtechafricaconference.com.
