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

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

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.
