SPiCE is set to expand its portfolio of gaming industry events into the Middle East with the inaugural SPiCE Middle East edition scheduled to take place in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, from May 6 to 8, 2026. The announcement marks a significant milestone for the SPiCE series, which began in 2018 with its flagship event in India and has since grown into a recognized global brand in the gaming industry.
Organizers of the event described the upcoming edition as a timely entry into one of the world’s fastest-evolving gaming regions. With the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) market undergoing considerable transformation, SPiCE Middle East aims to create a dedicated platform for industry leaders, investors, and regulators to exchange ideas, explore business opportunities, and navigate shifting regulatory frameworks.
The 2026 event in Egypt will feature panel discussions, keynote presentations, and networking opportunities tailored to the region’s specific growth trajectory. According to organizers, the conference will spotlight emerging investment potential, regulatory developments, and the technological innovations shaping the future of gaming in the region.
“SPiCE Middle East arrives at a pivotal moment, poised to support and drive the industry’s next phase of growth,” stated the announcement. The event is expected to attract a wide spectrum of participants, including operators, suppliers, affiliates, investors, and policymakers.
To mark the launch, a 20% early bird discount has been announced on all sponsorship, exhibition, and delegate packages. The offer is valid for bookings made by July 18, 2025.
