Nigeria has been selected to host the 2026 edition of the Regulatory Alignment for a Continental Economy (RACE) conference. The event aims to promote regulatory harmonization, enhance digital trust, and encourage cross-border innovation throughout Africa.
RACE 2026 will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, and stakeholders to discuss strategies for building a more connected and efficient digital economy across the continent. The conference is expected to support efforts toward a seamless digital market and improved collaboration among African nations.
**Why this matters**
The conference addresses key challenges in Africa’s digital landscape, including fragmented regulations and limited cross-border cooperation. By fostering alignment and trust, RACE 2026 could accelerate digital transformation, boost economic growth, and improve access to digital services for millions across Africa.
