Belgrade, Serbia, May 26th, 2026, Chainwire
The Balkan Web3 and iGaming Awards will be held in Budva for the second year on September 30th.
This time, the premium event for founders and C-level managers is being held in collaboration with the longest-running IT conference, Infofest (since 1994). As per tradition, BWiGA will feature discussion panels, solo presentations by speakers, an awards ceremony, and an evening party in a garden by the sea. A pitch session for web3 startups is also planned as part of the BWiGA accelerator.
Participants are expected from various countries, including the UK, Hungary, Germany, Cyprus, Turkey, Georgia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Russia, Ukraine, and several others. Previously, BWiGA has attracted guests from 25 countries in Tivat and Belgrade. Well-known participants such as Endorphina, Lenkep, 1w, and ambitious companies such as 100hp, Headshot, Idolme, INFI Multichain, and Gatex have already signed up for these third awards.
The jury includes renowned experts such as Guy Yanpolsky (Forbes Business Council, WoW Summit co-founder) and Andrey Insarov (Founder of Intis Telecom, CEO at it.com Domains, Forbes Business Council), and the speakers include top names such as Paul Lalovic (Partner at Agile Dynamics), Vit Jedlička (President of Liberland), Tobias Jack Lewis (Head of BD at Wallet in Telegram), Anina Milanovic (World Bank Strategic Advisor for BELEX), Zoran Djikanovic (Professor of Finance & Banking at UDG), Andrew Builov (Founder of SEO Restore), Milica Jovanovic (CBDO at Atlaslive), Grigory Chikishev (Team Lead at Quantitative), and several others.
BWiGA is, as usual, hosted by Lead Volume, an agency that has been organizing IT conferences and parties around the world for 10 years.
“Immediately after the conference in Belgrade in March, new awards participants called me and asked when the next events in Montenegro and Serbia would be,” shares BWiGA founder Alexey Nasybullin. “Several months before the new awards, we already have applications for nominations and participation from other countries. This indicates that our events are being followed, and new companies and speakers are joining. Furthermore, we are pleased to have already established a regular audience from our home region, the Balkans, as well as from other regions. New participants are now joining the regulars. This is a great trend. This means our development direction is on the right track, and our event is truly needed in the Balkans and neighboring regions.”
