Two weeks to go until Vilnius summit – with 85% of tickets already sold out

European Gaming, Central and Eastern Europe’s leading betting and gaming media platform, is set to host this month’s soon-to-sell-out MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit.

With 85% of the event’s tickets sold-out with two weeks still to go, the Hipther-organised event will mark the return of the Baltic region’s first in-person gaming event since the onset of COVID in 2020.

The 5th edition of Hipther’s boutique European Gaming summit restarts its in-person format on May 12, 2022, in Vilnius, Lithuania, at the eco-friendly Radisson Blu Royal Astorija Hotel, located in the Baltic capital’s UNESCO-certified old town.

Promising a hugely impressive roster of regional thought leaders and regulatory authorities, the Tom Horn, Endorphina and Nordic Gambling sponsored MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit provides a unique open platform for stakeholders and industry operators, as well as a wealth of networking opportunities for gaming executives.

The event’s extensive roster of expert speakers includes Dainis Niedra (Managing Director Central & Eastern Europe at Enlabs), Kaido Ulejev (Commercial Director CEECA at Betsson Group) and Morten Ronde (Managing Partner at Nordic Gambling), with a whole host of further respected industry leaders confirmed to attend.

Alongside the summit is the BSG Awards, launched in 2019, which have become the most important gaming industry awards in the region after its reputation for being an independent, fair and representative awards event that recognises significant achievements within the industry.

With voting closed on 10th April, the shortlist sees a variety of betting and iGaming companies make the top 5 for its wide selection of highly competitive categories, including the likes of BetGames, Relax Gaming, Betsson, SIS and Kiron Interactive.

Offering a wealth of insights across innovation and compliance, delegates will include high-level government officials, fintech, blockchain and cybersecurity experts, as well as multiple panel discussions and exclusive keynote presentations.

Set to mark its inaugural year, Hipther agency envisions TECH Meetup Baltics to become MARE BALTICUM’s sister event, which will tour the Baltics every year.

Commenting on the return of live events in the Baltic region, Zoltan Tuendik, Founder and Head of Business and Events at European Gaming and Hipther Agency said:

“With just two weeks to go, we’re ready to rock Vilnius with the region’s first proper in-person gaming conference in three years!

“While we were always sure MARE BALTICUM would be in high demand, we’ve been absolutely blown away by the amount of enthusiasm we’ve had from our friends and partners.

“I have no doubt it will prove to be an absolutely fantastic conference with a whole host of speakers and delegates set to deliver some of the best insights and discussion tracks available across the Baltics and Scandinavia.”

SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator Enters the Estonian Market

SOFTSWISS, a leading iGaming software provider, has strengthened its European presence by making the Jackpot Aggregator available in Estonia. This strategic move follows the recent Jackpot Aggregator certification in Bulgaria, Brazil, and Peru.

Estonia remains a strong and digitally mature iGaming market in Europe. Industry revenue is projected to reach 452.5 million dollars in 2025, with growth expected to push that figure past 508 million dollars by 2029. The casino and slots segment alone is expected to generate more than 206 million dollars this year. With user penetration at 31.2% and over 450,000 players forecast by the end of the period, the market continues to draw interest from operators across the region.

In July 2025, SOFTSWISS introduced Paid Participation campaigns – a new Jackpot Aggregator feature where players pay a small fee to join jackpots, prize drops, or other campaigns. This model offers a more engaging experience, giving players better chances of winning and fewer participants. For operators, it opens a new revenue stream by funding prize pools through player contributions. 

Angelina Stasiuk, Head of Business Line at SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, shares: “The Jackpot Aggregator has proven its impact across multiple markets, and we are excited to bring its full potential to operators in Estonia. Now, Estonian operators can launch player-centric jackpot campaigns tailored to their brand and audience. We see strong potential in the Estonian market and are ready to support partners with the tools they need to stand out.”

The Jackpot Aggregator also integrates directly with the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, which now offers over 35,000 games – the largest portfolio in the industry – and maintains enterprise-level uptime at 99.999%. Together, these solutions offer a powerful combination for operators looking to scale with confidence.
