The association recently met with the regulator to present its mission, vision and strategic plans, with discussions focused on empowering women in the gaming sector<\/strong> through professional development, education and employee wellbeing initiatives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n During the meeting, the association said it outlined plans to engage business-to-consumer (B2C) gaming operators across Kenya, creating opportunities for women employed in the industry to access mentorship and support programmes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0organisation\u00a0said the Gambling Regulatory Authority welcomed the initiative. Director general Peter Maina Karimi<\/strong> noted that the regulator has a\u00a0significant number\u00a0of women employees who could\u00a0benefit\u00a0from the proposed workplace wellness and mentorship sessions. The authority also invited the association to extend the\u00a0programmes\u00a0to its staff.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a statement following the meeting, the association described the engagement as the first step in a wider strategy to build relationships with regulators and industry stakeholders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n “This visit marks the beginning of a broader engagement strategy <\/strong>as we continue meeting with key industry stakeholders and regulatory bodies to introduce our programmes and build partnerships that will positively impact the gaming industry.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n The association also thanked Karimi and his team for their support during the visit:\u00a0“From the ease of securing the appointment, to the professionalism<\/strong> of the staff who welcomed us, and the valuable time and attention given to us by the director general\u00a0Mr\u00a0Peter Maina Karimi, we left feeling genuinely supported and encouraged. We are truly grateful to\u00a0Mr\u00a0Peter and his team at large.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n As part of its broader engagement strategy, the association plans to meet with other gaming regulators and industry organisations, including the Tanzania Gaming Association, the Gaming Board of Tanzania, Uganda’s National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board and the Association of Gaming Operators Kenya (AGOK). <\/p>\n\n\n\n The organisation said it believes stronger collaboration<\/strong> between regulators, operators and industry bodies will help create healthier workplaces while expanding opportunities for women throughout the region’s gaming sector. <\/p>\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/focusgn.com\/africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/06\/photo-1503428593586-e225b39bddfe-300x200.jpg\")
