HIPTHER Warsaw Summit 2026: iGaming, Compliance and Technology at the Heart of the European Debate

The HIPTHER Warsaw Summit 2026 positions itself once again as a focused forum where the iGaming industry and regulated sectors converge to discuss what’s next. The event, convened by HIPTHER, will take place on October 27 and 28 at the InterContinental Warsaw by IHG, bringing with it a program centered on the challenges and opportunities that regulation, technology, and compliance present for the European digital ecosystem.

A Direct Focus on Regulation and Technology in the European iGaming Sector

The announced agenda for the HIPTHER Warsaw Summit 2026 addresses the forces reshaping digitally regulated sectors in Europe. Sessions will cover the regulatory evolution of gaming, market development, and responsible gaming, as well as advanced methodologies for fraud prevention, digital identity, and the challenges of eIDAS 2.0. The event's location in Poland underscores this market's role as a hub of the European conversation on compliance, player protection, and resilient business models.

“In a landscape dominated by mega-events, HIPTHER Warsaw Summit is designed around focus, access, and value. Our goal is to bring together the right leaders to discuss what is changing in Europe and leave with clear strategies to act,” stated Zoltan Tündik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at HIPTHER.

The event establishes a framework where regulators, operators, legal experts, and technology providers can analyze how to respond to increasing regulatory demands without losing sight of sustainable growth. The conversation also extends to fintech, banking and payments, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and marketing.

Artificial Intelligence and Compliance: Central Themes in Warsaw

The impact of artificial intelligence, secure digital identity, and frictionless payments will take center stage. Attendees will discuss everything from responsible implementation of AI to adapting in the face of AI-driven search and the future of visibility in regulated digital environments.

Among the scheduled topics are:

• Responsible implementation of AI and its impact on regulatory compliance
• Fraud prevention and AML strategies
• Secure digitization of identity under eIDAS 2.0
• Trends in digital payments and adaptation of business models in Europe

Debates are expected with decision-makers and specialists who provide practical insights on how the convergence of technology, payments, and regulation is transforming the industry.

A Streamlined Format Focused on Real Value: Beyond Mega Fairs

The HIPTHER summit deliberately distances itself from the macro-event format. In a calendar saturated with large-scale fairs and overloaded agendas, the proposal here is a boutique forum: relevance and direct access to key players. The format facilitates interaction with speakers and the continuation of discussions during networking breaks and meals; participants can approach industry leaders and build relationships in a less crowded environment.

The proposal for companies and professionals is clear: less logistics, more strategic value in every conversation.

Workshops and Applied Learning: HIPTHER Academy

Running parallel to the main program, the HIPTHER Academy includes workshops led by experts aiming to turn information into professional skill. This practical layer reflects the organizer's philosophy: attendees should leave the event not only informed about what is changing but equipped with concrete tools to transform that knowledge into action.

Strategic Networking and Integration

Another declared difference of the HIPTHER format is the real integration of networking. From morning wellness activities, structured pause times to chat, networking lunches, and evening meet-ups, the event creates multiple points of contact. This allows participants not to have to constantly choose between relevant content and professional connection opportunities.

The Summit experience will also incorporate the European iGaming Excellence Awards (EiGE Awards 2026), bringing the industry together to recognize excellence in the sector as a central part of the agenda.

Warsaw as a Meeting Point: An Industry Connected for the Future

The Summit will convene operators, regulators, providers, legal and compliance experts, fintech and payments specialists, AI experts, cybersecurity leaders, marketing professionals, and high-level decision-makers. The purpose: to address the big questions facing the sector with professionals who can articulate concrete answers.
