Meet Your Running Guide: Živilė Šerkšnaitė

This year, the MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit 2025 is taking that ethos to new heights – or, shall we say, new strides.

On May 28th at 07:30 AM, attendees are invited to join a Morning Networking Run across scenic Vilnius, guided by none other than Živilė Šerkšnaitė – Ultramarathoner, Artist, Mountaineer, and all-around human powerhouse. With up to 8km of easy-paced movement and conversation, the run will return by 08:45 AM –  just in time for a quick refresh and a powerful Day 2 kick-off.

And of course, we’ll keep you hydrated and happy: A big shoutout to WALLETTO, our Replenish Sponsor, for fuelling our runners with vitamin water and good vibes!

A Legacy of Movement…

HIPTHER introduced Morning Networking Runs in 2022, bringing early risers together for invigorating starts in Prague, Riga, Budapest, and Warsaw. The initiative was met with open arms (and elevated heart rates), prompting us to add Morning Yoga Sessions in 2023, creating moments of calm and clarity before packed agendas.

These aren’t just wellness gimmicks. They reflect our deep commitment to human-centric growth, nurturing not just minds, but bodies and spirits too. Because in our world, strong connections are built not just in panels and presentations, but on running paths, yoga mats, and bike routes.

So whether you’re lacing up your sneakers or strapping on your helmet, we can’t wait to move with you in Vilnius!

…Beyond Conferences

To help our community stay active beyond conference days, we’ve also created two growing digital wellness spaces – where movement meets motivation:

👟 HIPTHER’s iGaming & TECH Run Club on Strava brings together runners from across the industry who are eager to stay fit, share their achievements, and inspire each other. Whether you’re training for your next 10K or just enjoying a weekend jog, this is your place to connect.

🚴 And now, for the pedal-powered pros and weekend wanderers alike, we’re proud to introduce the brand new iGaming & TECH Cycling Club. Hop on your bike, track your rides, and cycle alongside fellow gaming & tech professionals – virtually and globally.
