The Hipther team proves that the Meetup concept works exceptionally and announces the launch of the Mini Meetups

The European Gaming Q1 Meetup took place on 11 February and has brought together +1500 participants for a full day of learning.

35 industry leaders from the European continent have joined 7-panel discussions and launched into forward-thinking conversations that were highly attended by industry shareholders.

We would like to thank the support of our sponsors: Altenar, Play’n GO, Nordic Gambling, Singular, and All-in Global.

Here are some testimonials left by some of the participants:

“Enjoyed first quarterly meetup of 2021, great cut through different markets and operations in the constantly changing gaming environment. Well done!” ~ Marke Räsänen, Head of Affiliates at VIPs Casino Gaming

“Long day, well organized and timed, more than helpful and interesting.” ~ Mattia Nicelli, Independent Consultant

“In a short time, a great scope about regulation, how to deal with emergents markets, a link between online and offline (that’s now a key issue as some sports need the offline for the social link), and a rising topic: Responsible gaming” ~ CATHERINE CHAUVIN, Area manager at PMU

“The European Gaming QMeetups keep you up to date on the legislation updates of the past months and upcoming months. A must-attend for gaming industry decision-makers.” ~ Christiaan Bollen, SEO Consultant and Founder at Boljoro

The program has satisfied all content needs for companies interested in updates from the EU/EEA/CIS and Balkan regions.

Some of the panel discussions have created many new ideas that have to be developed, or have to be discussed further. Thus, are creating a series of Mini Meetups that will feature only one panel discussion per edition and allow the participants to engage even deeper into the conversation.

After receiving positive feedback and engaging into organizational discussions, Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at Hipther Agency commented: “We are thrilled to see that our regional meetups are helping the industry engage in forward thinking conversations and are not as tiring as a large conference would be. With such occasions, we can keep the momentum going by also maintaining the quality of the content. During the two Q1 Meetups (Americas + Europe), we had a total of 3000 participants and over 17k viewers on YouTube. We are complementing the Meetup offering by the launch of the Mini Meetup series which will take place monthly and have only one panel discussion that allows participants to engage in the discussion themselves.”
