Tom Horn Gaming Celebrates a 10-Year Innovation Milestone as Grand Sponsor of Hipther Prague Summit 2026
Tom Horn Gaming is excited to be the Grand Sponsor of the upcoming Hipther Prague Summit 2026, strengthening its enduring collaboration with event organizer HIPTHER and maintaining a tradition that has become essential to the company’s yearly industry schedule.
Hosted in the historic city of Prague, the 10th anniversary edition of the summit features the theme “Decoding the Future: 10 Years of Impact.” The gathering will unite over 400 participants and over 100 presenters from 35 nations, establishing a lively forum for exploring the newest advancements influencing gaming, AI, fintech, and emerging technologies.
Throughout the years, Tom Horn Gaming has developed a strong bond with HIPTHER and its community, backing the summit as it transformed into one of Central Europe’s key events for the gaming and technology industries. Once again serving as Grand Sponsor demonstrates the company’s dedication to significant industry conversation, sharing knowledge, and fostering collaboration.
The 2026 version assures an exceptionally diverse lineup. Participants will be able to explore three concurrent content tracks, providing in-depth insights into industry trends, regulatory changes, innovations, and market opportunities. Enhancing the conference schedule is the HIPTHER Academy, offering extra educational chances and expert perspectives for professionals keen to remain at the forefront.
In conjunction with the conference, the summit will feature the renowned GamingTECH CEE Awards ceremony, honoring outstanding achievements in the region’s iGaming industry. Tom Horn Gaming has been nominated in three significant B2B categories: Best Online Casino Provider in CEE, Best Slot Developer in CEE, and Best RNG Game Portfolio in CEE. The winners will be revealed on 24 March at the GamingTECH CEE Awards event, which takes place during the summit.
For Tom Horn Gaming, the occasion provides more than merely a venue for conversation. It presents a chance to reestablish connections with partners, share insights with industry leaders, and interact with the wider technology community in one of Europe’s most motivating cities.
“Over the years, the Prague Summit has become a staple event for our team,” said Ondrej Lapides, CEO at Tom Horn Gaming. “Our partnership with HIPTHER goes back many editions, and it’s fantastic to see how the summit has grown into such an important hub for dialogue across gaming, AI and fintech. Being the Grand Sponsor of this special 10th anniversary edition makes it even more meaningful. We’re looking forward to the insightful discussions, meeting industry peers and celebrating a decade of innovation together in beautiful Prague.”
From the organiser’s side, the continued support from Tom Horn Gaming is equally valued.
“Long-term partnerships are what truly build strong communities, and Tom Horn Gaming has been part of the Prague Summit journey for many years,” said Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at HIPTHER. “We are delighted to welcome them back as Grand Sponsor for this landmark 10th edition. Their continued involvement reflects the collaborative spirit that has shaped the summit since day one, and we look forward to another inspiring gathering with industry leaders from across the globe.”
With the summit marking ten years of influence, the 2026 edition will include a reflection on the changes in the industry and its community over the last decade. With a full schedule, international involvement, and a significant anniversary to celebrate, this year’s event is set to be one of the most unforgettable so far.

GoldenRace brings In-Shop Mobile and virtual sports to iGaming Afrika Summit
GoldenRace will exhibit its virtual sports portfolio and mobile betting technology at the iGaming Afrika Summit in Nairobi, running 4 to 6 May. The supplier said it will present market-specific content for East Africa at Stand C09.
A key focus will be GoldenRace’s In-Shop Mobile product, which the company positions as a way for operators to offer “high-speed, digital betting experiences” on customers’ own devices while they are in a retail shop.
The stand will also feature GoldenRace content across multiple verticals, including Virtual Football, Dog Racing, and the number-draw game Spin2Win, alongside newer titles JetEscape and Arcade Heist. GoldenRace will also present the Spinmatic slot catalogue, which it said is mobile-optimised.
GoldenRace said the retail-plus-mobile approach is aimed at lowering overhead for land-based operators by supporting higher player volumes without adding hardware at the same rate. “Our goal at the iGaming Afrika Summit is to demonstrate how global technological standards can be applied to meet the specific needs of African operators,” said Martin Wachter, GoldenRace CEO & Founder. “From our In-Shop Mobile technology to our virtual sports portfolio, we provide the tools necessary for security, scalability and engagement.”
