The HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026 has officially come to a close, marking not only the end of another outstanding edition, but also the celebration of a defining milestone: 10 Years of Impact.

Bringing together nearly 400 professionals from iGaming, technology, fintech, compliance, artificial intelligence and blockchain, this year’s edition stood as the most ambitious and dynamic to date. Over two days, the summit delivered high-level insights, meaningful connections, practical learning and memorable experiences.

From early morning wellness sessions to late-night celebrations, HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026 offered a fully immersive experience, reinforcing its position as a benchmark event within the European Gaming and Tech ecosystem.

A summit built for insight, strategy and real connections

Held on March 24–25, 2026 at OREA Hotel Andel’s Prague, the event once again proved why it remains a cornerstone gathering where technology, regulation and innovation converge.

The anniversary edition expanded into a full-scale format featuring three core conference stages, the HIPTHER Academy, the GamingTECH CEE Awards 2026 and curated networking opportunities throughout the event.

The result was a high-impact boutique environment where conversations went beyond networking to actively shape the future of the industry.

Four stages, one unified vision of the future

The summit unfolded across four stages, integrating compliance, regulation, business strategy and innovation into a cohesive narrative. The agenda balanced deep specialization with cross-industry dialogue among operators, suppliers and advisors.

A key highlight was the Responsible Gaming and Player Safety focus on Day 2, developed in collaboration with the Institute for Gambling Regulation (IPRH). This track placed sustainable growth and player protection at the forefront, addressing risk detection, regulatory alignment and emerging challenges through expert-led discussions.

The HIPTHER Academy further enhanced the event by offering hands-on workshops and certifications across AI, compliance, marketing and leadership, positioning itself as a practical learning platform with real-world application.

Networking beyond the conference floor

Networking was a core pillar of the event, extending well beyond conference sessions into curated experiences designed to foster genuine connections.

The days began with wellness-driven activities such as yoga sessions and a morning networking run. In the evenings, the focus shifted to celebration and recognition.

The GamingTECH CEE Awards 2026 honoured industry excellence during a ceremony held at Buddha-Bar Prague, hosted by Endorphina, delivering a premium experience that blended prestige with vibrant cultural elements.

The event concluded with the Closing Party at Reduta Jazz Club and the traditional informal karaoke afterparty, reinforcing the community-driven spirit of the summit.

Powered by industry leaders

The success of HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026 was made possible thanks to the support of its partners and sponsors, reflecting a shared commitment to innovation, compliance and industry collaboration.

A decade of impact and the road ahead

Under the theme “Decoding the Future: 10 Years of Impact”, the 2026 edition not only celebrated the past, but also set the stage for the future.

Zoltan Tündik, HIPTHER Co-Founder and Head of Business, commented: “Reaching the 10-year milestone with the HIPTHER Prague Summit is a proud moment of reflection. This edition was not only a celebration of a decade of impact, but also a launchpad for our next chapter, with a strong focus on consolidation in Europe and expansion opportunities in new regions.”

The next edition is already scheduled for March 23–24, 2027, continuing the legacy of a platform that has, over the past decade, become a trusted hub for knowledge exchange, cross-border dialogue and business development across the Gaming and Tech industries.
