The HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026 has concluded, celebrating its 10th anniversary with nearly 400 industry professionals in attendance.
Held at OREA Hotel Andel’s Prague on March 24–25, the event brought together leaders from iGaming, fintech, AI, and compliance sectors for two days of discussions, workshops, and networking. Organizers described the 2026 edition as the largest and most dynamic in the event’s history.
This year’s summit introduced a full-scale format that included three conference stages, the HIPTHER Academy, and the GamingTECH CEE Awards 2026. Attendees also participated in curated networking events designed to foster business connections and knowledge-sharing.
A major focus of the agenda was responsible gaming. A dedicated track led by the Institute for Gambling Regulation emphasized player safety, regulatory alignment, and sustainable industry growth through expert panels and case-based discussions.
Networking remained central to the summit experience, extending beyond formal sessions. Activities included wellness initiatives such as yoga and a morning networking run, alongside evening events.
Meanwhile, the awards ceremony and official party took place at Buddha-Bar Prague, followed by a closing celebration at Reduta Jazz Club. An informal karaoke afterparty concluded the event.
The event was supported by several industry partners, including Grand Stage Sponsor Tom Horn Gaming, Grand Quality & Compliance Sponsor Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), Silver and Badge/Bracelet Sponsor Kanggiten, Awards Ceremony & Party Sponsor Endorphina, Lanyard Sponsor DSTGAMING, and General Sponsors Gaming in Poland, RM Legal, and WinSpirit Casino.
According to Zoltan Tündik, HIPTHER Co-Founder & Head of Business, the summit’s 10-year milestone reflects the growing importance of collaboration and innovation in the sector: “With 19 years of navigating the ever-evolving media and news landscape, we have seen firsthand how vital authentic connection is to industry progress.”
“This edition was a celebration of a decade of impact, but it was also a launchpad for our next chapter,” he said. “Over the next five years, our focus is on consolidation.”
Tündik mentioned plans to expand into new regions, including a forthcoming Balkans-focused event in 2027, while also exploring opportunities in North America.
“We are deepening our roots in the CEE, D-A-CH, Baltic, and Nordic regions. However, we aren’t standing still,” he noted. “We are thrilled to announce the upcoming launch of the HIPTHER Balkans Summit in 2027, and we are keeping a very close watch on North America.”
The next edition of the summit is scheduled for March 23–24, 2027, as organizers aim to build on a decade of growth and further strengthen the platform’s role in shaping the future of gaming and technology.
