The international games industry meets in Hamburg – 500 guests at the Hamburg Games Conference 2023
Welcoming the games world on-site in Hamburg: 500 conference guests and 50 speakers traveled from 26 countries to the 14th Hamburg Games Conference on March 1 and 2. An additional 600 guests visited the conference’s expo area which was open to the public during the conference. Over the two days of the conference, a total of 17 presentations, 4 panel discussions, a workshop and a pitch competition were on the agenda. In the expo area of the conference, development studios and service providers presented themselves and their products to the professional audience. In the business area, conference guests arranged a total of more than 300 meetings via the matchmaking platform MeetToMatch and the get-together on the evening of the first conference day was used extensively for networking with the German and international games industry.
The focus topic of this year’s Hamburg Games Conference was “Invest in Games” – major M&A trends in the industry, portfolio strategies, practical insights from the sale of one’s own games company: the main track was all about the potentials of the international games markets, but also about the challenges studios face in winning investors and publishers for their own projects. In the second conference track, speakers additionally shared practical insights and knowledge from the areas of game development, start-up founding and financing.
Successful return as on-site event and international networking platform
“We are delighted about a successful conference with numerous international B2B guests here on site in Hamburg. The Hamburg Games Conference has not only established itself as the one of the first major B2B event in the games industry’s annual calendar, but also as the ideal exchange platform for making international contacts and initiating deals,” comments Dr. Ralph Oliver Graef, Managing Partner of the law firm GRAEF Rechtsanwälte who co-organize the event.
“Our conference program on ‘Invest in Games’ and selected hands-on topics received very positive feedback. In addition to the many practical insights, we were also able to spark discussions, for example about salary transparency or games marketing post-corona,” adds Dennis Schoubye, Head of the location initiative Gamecity Hamburg, co-organizer of the Hamburg Games Conference.
Numerous well-known games companies among attendees, contributors and sponsors
Hamburg-based games companies InnoGames, Bigpoint, Exit Games/ Photon Engine, Behaviour Interactive and The Sandbox supported the conference with sponsorships, as did software service provider Endava and Wemade, provider of the blockchain platform WEMIX, and the Polaris Convention, also based in Hamburg.

Vegangster Gives Operators Real-Time Jackpot Control and a New Revenue Stream with Sharedluck’s JackpotX
Platform provider Vegangster has completed the integration of JackpotX, a flexible jackpot engine developed by Sharedluck, giving operators a new way to run scalable jackpot campaigns across brands and game catalogues. The integration focuses on player-contribution jackpots, creating an additional revenue stream for operators.
JackpotX provides more granular control than traditional jackpot tools. Operators can configure several jackpot tiers, define custom triggers, and adjust campaign parameters in real time without downtime. This makes it easier to launch targeted campaigns quickly and align jackpots with specific retention or promotional objectives.
With the integration, Vegangster clients can manage jackpots directly inside their existing back office. Campaigns can be linked to selected brands, game groups, or specific player cohorts, with real-time performance insights available through Sharedluck’s dashboards. This helps teams monitor engagement, track contribution levels, and optimise campaigns while they are Running.
For players, jackpot values update in real time across all touchpoints, including lobby displays, game interfaces, and promotional banners, creating visible momentum as prizes grow. This transparency drives catalogue exploration and extends session time, giving operators a practical tool for supporting both short-term promotional bursts and longer-term engagement Strategies.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, said:
“Jackpots remain one of the clearest levers for engagement in online casinos. Sharedluck built an engine that offers operators the level of precision and flexibility they expect from modern tools. With JackpotX inside Vegangster, teams can run customised jackpot campaigns at the speed their operations require.”
The partnership brings Sharedluck’s jackpot engine directly into Vegangster’s ecosystem, giving operators a straightforward way to deploy contribution-based jackpots and track performance through real-time analytics.
Chris Scicluna, Co-Founder at Sharedluck, said:
“We are excited to bring JackpotX to Vegangster operators. In successful campaigns, we have seen higher retention, longer session times, stronger conversion from casual to regular play, and clear uplift in VIP-focused promotions. We look forward to seeing Vegangster clients achieve similar results.”
The integration is now available for all Vegangster operators. Existing clients can enable JackpotX through their account manager, with configuration handled inside the Vegangster back office and supported by Sharedluck’s analytics dashboards. New operators can access the module during onboarding as part of their standard setup process.
Operators can get a closer look at JackpotX at ICE Barcelona, Fira Barcelona Gran Via, 19–21 January 2026, with live demos available at stand 1E20.
