26 August 2025 – HIPTHER, the global media hub and event organizer for the Gaming and Technology industries, has announced a major rebrand and structural evolution of its events for 2026 and beyond. The changes include an expanded focus on learning and networking in the Baltics, as well as the launch of a new digital events lounge.
The flagship HIPTHER Events will now carry refreshed titles: HIPTHER Prague Summit, HIPTHER Warsaw Summit, and HIPTHER Baltics. The latter will expand into three dedicated annual events, hosted in each Baltic capital: HIPTHER Vilnius, HIPTHER Riga, and HIPTHER Tallinn.
Celebrating a Decade of Impact
In 2026, HIPTHER will mark ten years of influence on the Gaming and Tech events landscape, celebrating the 10th anniversary of its flagship boutique summit in Central and Eastern Europe, formerly known as the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit.
Over the years, HIPTHER has grown from its Gaming roots to embrace emerging industries including Fintech, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, and VR/AR, cementing its role as the organizer of premier boutique events in Europe. Its flagship gatherings have included:
Prague Gaming & TECH Summit – a cornerstone for the GameTech industry in CEE and beyond.
MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit – a key networking hub for the Baltics.
European Gaming Congress (EGC) – the definitive meeting point for Gaming leaders in Warsaw.
HIPTHER 2.0: Strengthening Brand & Connections
Following the successful unification of its event communications under the HIPTHER brand in 2024 and 2025, the rebrand reflects the way the community already refers to “HIPTHER Prague,” “HIPTHER Warsaw,” and “HIPTHER Summits.”
Each of the newly structured events will showcase the local character and innovation of their host city, while connecting participants to Gaming and Tech leaders across Europe and worldwide.
Introducing the HIPTHER Lounge
Alongside the rebrand, HIPTHER is launching the HIPTHER Lounge, a digital platform designed to enhance event participation and networking. The Lounge enables attendees to:
Register seamlessly for all HIPTHER events.
Access live agendas, speaker updates, maps, and alerts.
Use AI-assisted networking and meeting scheduling.
Receive tailored recommendations and post-event resources.
Stay updated with reminders and notifications before, during, and after events.
The HIPTHER Lounge aims to create a smarter, more connected event experience, combining learning, networking, and business growth.
A Vision for the Future
Zoltan Tuendik, HIPTHER Co-Founder, stated about this new era of HIPTHER Events:
“A decade in, we’ve learned that the true power of events lies not in the stage or the spotlight, but in the connections we spark and the futures we shape together. At HIPTHER, we don’t follow trends, we anticipate them, connect the dots, and design platforms where tomorrow’s ideas meet today’s innovators. As technology reshapes how we interact, our mission is to make those connections more intelligent, more meaningful, and above all, more human.”
