Discuss the concerns of the gambling industry in 2020 at the virtual gaming summit MARE BALTICUM

The virtual edition of MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit is a digital summit where the focus is not on one region, but the entire gambling industry as a whole. This Summit is bringing important subjects to the virtual table that are designed to spark innovative discussions among industry experts. This year’s agenda will virtually address the concerns of the gambling industry in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic on May 7th.
The discussed subjects are alternatives to classic sports betting, how affiliates/marketing companies are surviving this period, if the advertising ban will be lifted in the future, and so on.
Due to COVID-19, there has been a worldwide disruption of sports events as well as audiences shifting their view when it comes to playing online casino games. This heated topic, among many others, will be heavily discussed at the panel discussion. Jan Urbanec, CEO of Endorphina – the dynamic and creative B2B software provider, will join in with top specialists from the iGaming industry (such as the Head of Sales at DIMOCO Carrier Billing – Beyza Orazova, the Head of Sales at Slotegrator – Vadim Potapenko and the CEO at Evenbet Gaming – Dmitry Starostenkov) where he will share his own thoughts in the panel discussion on his topic if the online casino industry is really benefiting as sports tournaments are disrupted.
Do you think the online casino industry is really benefiting? With all the land-based casino lockdowns and sports events cancellation, sports betting enthusiasts are spending more time playing casino games. This should mean that the online casino industry is truly benefiting the most. Increased activity is being also observed in the verticals of the online poker industry.
Jan from Endorphina shares: “The unfortunate cancelation of most sports events had an obvious effect on betting operators, however, the companies that diversified with their product offerings did manage to mitigate losses. Endorphina is in a privileged position. We have a digital product that is not affected by external events and we control the delivery as long as the internet is working.”
The Digital Summit will also provide its attendees with the perfect networking platform so that everyone will be able to participate in the industry discussions from the comfort of their own homes. Delegates and speakers will be assigned an online profile upon registration and available for contact in advance of the event, with meetings held via voice or video call through the event’s platform, harnessing the very latest in networking tools.
We’re looking forward to welcoming all the visitors at the full day’s virtual event to discuss the latest global challenges at panel discussions via live stream and through online meetings. Mark your calendar for May 7th, to make sure you won’t miss out on the opportunity to get in touch with Jan online.
Stay safe and healthy!

When 5 Votes Make All the Difference: A Special Moment at the GamingTECH CEE Awards

At this year’s GamingTECH CEE Awards, we witnessed something rare—and pretty remarkable—in the “Best iGaming CEO in CEE” category.
With 214 total votes cast across 9 nominees, two names clearly rose to the top, standing apart from a highly competitive field:
- Vlastimil Venclik, CEO at Oddin.gg
- Dario Jurčić, CEO at NSoft
But here’s where it gets interesting: the difference between them? Just 5 votes.
That’s right—after weeks of online voting and a live secret ballot from summit participants, the final count came down to a 5-vote margin. In a category filled with respected leaders, innovators, and visionaries, two CEOs clearly resonated with the industry in a big way.
And while only one person can technically take home the winner’s trophy, this razor-thin result was too significant to ignore. So, for the first time in the history of the GamingTECH CEE Awards, we decided to introduce something new:
- An Honorary Runner-Up Trophy for “Best iGaming CEO in CEE” awarded to Dario Jurčić, CEO of NSoft.
Why This Matters
The intent behind this decision is simple: When excellence is nearly indistinguishable, it deserves to be recognized.
Dario Jurčić has played a vital role in expanding NSoft’s influence, strengthening its presence in new markets, and leading with a people-first approach in a rapidly evolving sector. His visibility, leadership, and impact were clearly acknowledged by the voting community—and with just a handful of votes separating him from the top spot, it felt only right to shine a spotlight on that achievement.
A Testament to a Vibrant Industry
The closeness of this race also speaks volumes about the caliber of leadership we’re seeing in the Central and Eastern European iGaming space. With companies like Oddin.gg and NSoft pushing boundaries in their respective verticals, the region continues to establish itself as a dynamic force in the global gaming landscape.
We congratulate Vlastimil Venclik on his well-earned win, and we extend our heartfelt appreciation and applause to Dario Jurčić for standing out in such a competitive field.
Sometimes, even second place can tell a powerful story—and this year, it certainly did.
