The Game Changer 4.0 conference was held on October 16, 2025 in Zagreb, in the premises of CineStar in the Z Center. This is the fourth edition of this prestigious technology event, which gathered more than 1,000 participants and over 100 top lecturers in the field of technology, innovation and digital transformation.
The conference was divided into five parallel halls, among which the hall dedicated to the gaming industry and gamification stands out. During the day, participants could listen to lectures about the popular game Scum, the domestic hit of the Gamepires studio, which attracted a lot of attention due to its innovation and influence on the gaming community. Special attention is paid to the online security of players, with an emphasis on the protection of personal data and security in the digital environment, which is one of the key challenges of modern gaming. It also discussed gamification as a powerful tool for transforming industries as diverse as healthcare, marketing and education, highlighting how game elements can drive engagement and improve user experiences.
We also spoke with Karl Ressler, a member of the EU Parliament, to whom we asked several questions regarding the legal framework for the gaming industry. We will publish the interview later

This event further confirms Zagreb as an important technological center in the region and a meeting place for the most influential representatives from the world of digital innovation.
