The leading conferences in the CEE and Baltic regions to return in 2022 to in-person gatherings, but with a new format.

 

The team at Hipther Agency is excited to reveal that in 2022, the in-person gatherings will return and the most talked-about conferences in the CEE & Baltic region will reign once again.

Participants are invited to some of the most luxurious conference rooms in Prague, Vilnius, and Budapest.

While the #hipthers conference portfolio quadrupled in 2021, the team is very much dedicated to keeping the traditions with the long-standing Prague Gaming Summit, MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit, BSG Awards, CEEGC, and the CEEG Awards.

We have come a long way since launching our first conference back in 2016 which already had an interesting start by being interrupted by a bomb threat. In our first year, we have received the baptism of fire and we now know that nothing can stop us! We have adapted to current times and between March 2020 and December 2021 have quadrupled the numbers of conferences hosted throughout the year. If there is one thing we’ve learned over this one and a half year, it’s that virtual and hybrid events are here to stay. So, we will continue to bring some of our conferences in virtual-only mode and some in a hybrid format. To add to the excitement, all the events are available in virtual reality on our recently built hiptherverse. Prague, Vilnius, and Budapest are some of the most popular destinations of our conferences, thus we invite you to join us next year in these awesome destinations” stated Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at Hipther Agency.

The dates of the conferences and awards are the following:

  • Prague Gaming Summit – 5 April (Prague, Czechia) – Registration is open. Register here!
  • MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit & BSG Awards – 12 May (Vilnius, Lithuania)
  • CEEGC + CEEG Awards – 27 September (Budapest, Hungary)

Numerology

Fun fact: In 2022, HIPTHER Agency is hosting 20 days of conferences and a total of 22 events. 20 days, 22 events = 2022

A new format for a new beginning

The new conference format is bringing new opportunities for quality boutique-style networking and the program is tailored to suit both the participants who are interested in the panel discussions and participants who are interested in growing their network/partner base.

The team has also added a new delegate pass starting from 2022, the Supplier Pass. This pass is dedicated to suppliers that are interested in having their company and services highlighted in front of the delegates.

Sustainable future

While recycling and reusing certain materials at the conferences are important steps towards achieving sustainability, the team is also sending a clear message about how conference organizers can directly impact the conservation of the planet’s ecosystem and biodiversity.

The events hosted by the #hipthers have always been applauded by the participants, and one of the strong points was the attention to the smallest details. Among the small details are the coffee breaks and complimentary buffet lunch.

While some might still argue, but meat-eating is one of the biggest environmental hazards facing our planet. The team has switched to fully plant-based menus in 2020 and will continue this path with the return of the in-person conference. The initiative has the full support of the venues in which the conferences are hosted and is considered to be a great idea by hotel managers who are already working on delicious plant-based meals for the delegates to enjoy in Prague, Vilnius, Berlin, Milan, and Budapest.

Hybrid time

While possible lockdowns or travel restrictions might still occur in 2022, all the conferences will also be available in the virtual format for industry professionals to be up to date with the content and starting 2022 can additionally be accessed in the hiptherverse.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

S8UL Esports, a global powerhouse in esports and gaming content, is officially making its debut in the Fatal Fury competitive scene with the signing of seasoned athlete Marcoantonio Malpica (Yurikov). Known for his versatility and longevity in the FGC (Fighting Game Community), Yurikov marks S8UL’s first-ever signing in Fatal Fury as the organization continues to expand its international presence across major esports titles.

Yurikov is a Peruvian-American competitor with over a decade of experience in the global fighting game circuit. Competing professionally since 2012, he first rose to prominence in titles like The King of Fighters and Guilty Gear Strive, and has since made a successful transition into Fatal Fury, carrying with him a legacy of consistency, adaptability, and competitive drive.

He has played over 400 matches and his tournament victories span multiple fighting games, including Summer Jam 2023, South Louisiana Major 2023, and Heat Wave 2022 – Northeast Championship 22. Now under the S8UL banner, Yurikov will represent India’s top esports organisation at the Esports World Cup 2025 in Riyadh, as well as other international fighting game tournaments throughout the year.

“From solo queues to the big leagues. Joining S8UL is a whole new chapter. I’ve always moved with purpose- now it’s time to do it with a team that shares the vision. Let’s make history,” stated Marcoantonio “Yurikov” Malpica.

S8UL’s move into Fatal Fury follows a series of high-impact signings across multiple titles including Apex Legends, Call of Duty (COD) Warzone, Chess, EAFC25, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB), Starcraft II and Tekken 8. While S8UL is already known for dominating the mobile esports and content space, this entry into Fatal Fury represents yet another step in its ambition to build a truly global, multi-genre esports legacy.

“Esports is evolving rapidly, and staying ahead means not just following trends, but setting them. At S8UL, we’ve always believed in backing talent that can lead across eras, not just tournaments.” said Animesh Agarwal, aka 8Bit Thug, Co-founder and CEO of S8UL. “Been watching Yurikov cook for a while — always knew he was built different. Welcome to the family, hermano.” 

EWC 2025 will witness 16 of the world’s best Fatal Fury players battle it out for a share of the massive $1 million (approx. INR 8.5 crore) prize pool from July 10 to 12 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

With this announcement, S8UL has now unveiled rosters across all eight titles that they will be competing in at EWC 2025. The lineups are as follows:

Apex Legends: Rick Wirth (Sharky), Benjamin Spaseski (Jesko) and Tom Canty (Legacy)

Call of Duty: Warzone: Colin Bowers-Wilson (Trikempathy), Braxton Trice (Braxtvn), and Ryder Skarzinski (Ryda)

Chess: Nihal Sarin and Aravindh Chithambaram

EAFC25: Jonas Wirth (Jonny) and Aaron Rivera (Happy)

Fatal Fury: Marcoantonio Malpica (Yurikov)

Mobile Legends Bang Bang: Michael Cosgun (MobaZane), Ian Hohl (FwydChickn), Jang Seong-hun (Hoon), Ziameth-Jei Caluya (ZIA), Vo Trung (Shark), and Carlos Ortega Vega (Bestplayer1)

Starcraft II: Pyung Jae Koh (GuMiho)

Tekken 8: Arja Gamoori (Sephiblack) and Nino Schwarz (Nino)

With all rosters now officially announced, the road to EWC 2025 begins for S8UL and Indian esports. As one of India’s most celebrated esports and gaming content organisations, S8UL is set to represent the nation on the world’s biggest esports stage and elevate Indian esports to unprecedented global heights.
