Following a remarkable opening to the week, Alea is proud to announce it was named Best Workplace 2026 at the SiGMA Africa Awards last night. This recognition marks the first official day of the event, reinforcing Alea’s commitment to building a high-performance culture as it expands across the continent.
Philanthropy and Art: The Queen of Cards
The awards night was also a celebration of Alea’s ongoing partnership with the SiGMA Foundation. During the charitable art auction, Alea acquired “The Queen of Cards,” a bronze sculpture by artist Derek Mason. This acquisition adds to Alea’s growing collection of SiGMA art pieces and directly supports the Foundation’s global missions.

- Panel: Mobile-First Game Design for African Audiences
- Time: 14:45 – 15:15
