The African Lotteries Association (ALA) has convened two major gatherings in Abidjan from June 23 to 25, 2025, bringing together Directors General of African lotteries and their delegations for a pivotal week of dialogue, training and strategic alignment.
On June 24, ALA hosted a high-level seminar at the Azalaï Hotel in Marcory, themed “Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity.” This timely session explored the evolving role of AI in the gaming and lottery industries, while spotlighting strategies to combat rising cybersecurity threats. Leaders from across the continent shared insights on innovation, operational efficiency and risk mitigation in an increasingly digital landscape.
The seminar was opened by Mr. Doumbia Fassery, Vice President of ALA and Director General of PMU Mali, representing Mr. Dramane Coulibaly, President of ALA and Director General of LONACI. The event also saw strong participation from ALA member executives, including Mr. Abdoulkarim Ouattara, Deputy Director General of LONACI, along with members of the ALA Board of Directors.
The week’s activities culminated on June 25 with ALA’s Annual General Assembly—also at the Azalaï Hotel—where members reviewed key achievements, adopted new resolutions and strengthen inter-member collaboration to advance the Association’s mission across the continent.
