European Gaming Q1 Meetup records tremendous success, announcing Q2 Meetup date and the launch of the European Gaming Mini Meetups


The Hipther team proves that the Meetup concept works exceptionally and announces the launch of the Mini Meetups
The European Gaming Q1 Meetup took place on 11 February and has brought together +1500 participants for a full day of learning.
35 industry leaders from the European continent have joined 7-panel discussions and launched into forward-thinking conversations that were highly attended by industry shareholders.
We would like to thank the support of our sponsors: Altenar, Play’n GO, Nordic Gambling, Singular, and All-in Global.
Here are some testimonials left by some of the participants:
“Enjoyed first quarterly meetup of 2021, great cut through different markets and operations in the constantly changing gaming environment. Well done!” ~ Marke Räsänen, Head of Affiliates at VIPs Casino Gaming
“Long day, well organized and timed, more than helpful and interesting.” ~ Mattia Nicelli, Independent Consultant
“In a short time, a great scope about regulation, how to deal with emergents markets, a link between online and offline (that’s now a key issue as some sports need the offline for the social link), and a rising topic: Responsible gaming” ~ CATHERINE CHAUVIN, Area manager at PMU
“The European Gaming QMeetups keep you up to date on the legislation updates of the past months and upcoming months. A must-attend for gaming industry decision-makers.” ~ Christiaan Bollen, SEO Consultant and Founder at Boljoro

The program has satisfied all content needs for companies interested in updates from the EU/EEA/CIS and Balkan regions.
Some of the panel discussions have created many new ideas that have to be developed, or have to be discussed further. Thus, are creating a series of Mini Meetups that will feature only one panel discussion per edition and allow the participants to engage even deeper into the conversation.
After receiving positive feedback and engaging into organizational discussions, Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at Hipther Agency commented: “We are thrilled to see that our regional meetups are helping the industry engage in forward thinking conversations and are not as tiring as a large conference would be. With such occasions, we can keep the momentum going by also maintaining the quality of the content. During the two Q1 Meetups (Americas + Europe), we had a total of 3000 participants and over 17k viewers on YouTube. We are complementing the Meetup offering by the launch of the Mini Meetup series which will take place monthly and have only one panel discussion that allows participants to engage in the discussion themselves.”

QTech Games fields more elite content with Popiplay
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Emerging-markets leader expands its offering with a fresh portfolio from the ascendant Scandinavian studio
QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has maintained the strong momentum in its deal-flow, thanks to its latest integration with Popiplay, an emerging force in high-level slots entertainment.
Integrating content from one of the more innovative and creative online slots providers adds yet more muscle to QTech Games’ burgeoning platform, which is taking the widest range of online games to emerging territories with established names, sitting alongside the industry’s most exciting up-and-coming providers.
Popiplay slot designs are recognised for a more modern approach – being streamer-focused, crypto-ready and high roller-friendly – while also showcasing special features (like Bonus Buy, and Chance 2x and 3x options) that elevate the player experience and deepen engagement. These features are in evidence across an array of popular titles, including new releases such as Fruit Empire and Jellyens X, which eloquently demonstrate Popiplay’s eclectic range of hit slots.
The agreement organically broadens Popiplay’s global scope, targeting emerging markets and creating new revenue streams. As the fastest-growing aggregator over the past few years, QTech’s platform offers the most expansive gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, retention and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language support.
Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “We’re excited to add Popiplay to our growing ranks. They are now coupling modern player demands to their existing cutting-edge mechanics, offering global operators varied content with which to captivate and retain the end user. And by combining unique maths modelling, which spans the volatility spectrum, with twists on conventional narratives, these games will foster some truly engaging gameplay for fresh cohorts of QTech players. Indeed, it’s been rewarding to see how Popiplay invariably seek to redefine the existing ecosystem and reimagine more traditional gaming experiences with each play. We look forward to watching how these games perform in regions which, in many cases, break new ground for Popiplay.”
Almir Kudic, CCO of Popiplay, added: “Through this partnership, Popiplay’s portfolio of dynamic slot games has been seamlessly integrated into QTech’s dominant aggregation platform for emerging markets, opening up a new network of partners and players worldwide for us. We can’t wait to see what the reception is. Through our combined commitment to collaboration and innovation, we can continue to work together to tailor the content for truly localised games that drive enhanced engagement and interest across a diverse and ever-changing slots landscape.
“At Popiplay, we firmly believe that our trademark creativity drives innovation. So, we’re committed to raising the bar in the igaming sector and pushing the boundaries of how these games look and feel. And this partnership with QTech constitutes a great opportunity to extend our product distribution across new territories and deliver our games to a range of top-tier partners.”

TaDa Gaming Spins Spellbinding Gaming in 3 Witch’s Lamp
Reading Time: 2 minutes
TaDa Gaming, has added some dark magic to its TriLuck slots series with its five reels, three rows and 50 fixed paylines new game, 3 Witch’s Lamp.
Green, Purple and Blue Potion Pot Scatters can trigger the bonus game’s free spins, five fixed jackpots, ignite coins for wins and increase the bonus prizes.
Spellbooks, rings, candles and Witch Stacked Wilds in the main game reinforce the bewitching theme, while 97% RTP and 3000x max win make the magic irresistible to all levels of players.
Set in the eerie castle tower, three luminous potions bubble away in a riot of colour above the grid. Using TaDa’s ‘three pots’ mechanism to maximum effect, the Green, Purple and Blue Pot Scatters each have unique magic to deliver in the bonus feature and when they combine their power, the magic goes off the scale.
Each pot brings a different bonus: the Blue Potion ‘Win Up’ Pot will ignite a random coin symbol on the board to increase the value with each spin; the Green Potion ‘Award All’ Pot will randomly increase the bonus for all the gold coin symbols on the board; while the high impact Purple ‘Jackpot Reel Up’ Pot will transform into jackpot symbols for Mini (5x), Minor (10x), Major (30x), Grand (100x) and the Witch’s Grand Jackpot of 1000x. Prizes are dynamically based on the triggering bet value.
When the Purple ‘Jackpot Reel Up’ bonus game is triggered, a new screen opens with an expanded 6×5 grid. Only blank positions, Purple Potion Pots and gold coin symbols will appear.
Three further respins are given for each symbol and the relevant jackpot counters light up as each jackpot value is applied. The first jackpot counter to show three lights will pay out. Any other jackpot counter lights will remain in place as the bonus game will continue until there are no more free spins and the jackpots can be won multiple times.
With a supernaturally eerie soundtrack, polished visuals and impressive details, 3 Witch’s Lamp delivers an atmospheric and evocative gaming experience.
Sean Liu, Director of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “3 Witch’s Lamp is an impressive addition to our very popular triple pots series. We are delighted to deliver this beautiful game supported with immersive mechanics and potentially generous prizes in time for a very happy Halloween for our players.”
