Adriatic Awards 2024: Celebrating Excellence in iGaming & Web3 in the Heart of Montenegro
The inaugural Adriatic Awards took place on 7–8 October 2024 at the stunning Porto Montenegro in Tivat, marking a significant new entry in the global calendar of iGaming and Web3 events. Organized by Lead Volume, the event brought together professionals from both industries for two days of networking, insights, and celebration — and iGaming Centre was proud to be there as media, supporting coverage and industry visibility.
Set against the spectacular Adriatic coastline, the event delivered a refreshing blend of business and elegance. The location itself — Porto Montenegro — set the tone: modern, upscale, and built for innovation, much like the industries it hosted.
With a strong focus on recognizing innovation and leadership, the Adriatic Awards featured presentations and panel discussions that explored emerging trends at the intersection of iGaming and Web3. The format combined traditional recognition with forward-thinking discussions on technology, regulation, gamification, and decentralization, opening up a compelling dialogue between more established iGaming players and disruptive Web3 newcomers.
Awards were presented across several categories, spotlighting excellence, creativity, and growth in the Adriatic region and beyond. These included companies and individuals pushing boundaries across affiliate marketing, blockchain gaming, platform innovation, and regulatory development.
Award winners included:
As part of the iGaming Centre our Founder, Martins Lielbardis attended the event, exploring opportunities, building new connections, and soaking in the energy of an emerging regional hub. Events like this matter — not only because they celebrate success but because they forge new bridges between communities that are increasingly intertwined.
The Adriatic region, particularly Montenegro, is emerging as an exciting space for the convergence of iGaming and Web3. With its strategic location, evolving regulatory landscape, and growing interest from investors and tech entrepreneurs, the area is positioning itself as more than just a beautiful destination — it’s becoming a serious business gateway.
We look forward to seeing how the Adriatic Awards evolve in the years ahead and will continue to support events that bring valuable conversations to the forefront.
We extend our thanks to organizers, participants and sponsors of the event.
