Young leaders in gaming awards

The Croatian scene of young entrepreneurs, innovators and technology experts has received well-deserved attention through the prestigious initiatives of Lider’s “30 under 30” list and VIDI Awards.

These programs recognize and celebrate young leaders who are changing industries and bringing innovation to the domestic and global levels. Lider’s “30 under 30” list Lider, a leading business magazine, publishes the “30 under 30” list every year, which brings together young people whose work and visions are changing the business world. Among this year’s winners are representatives of the gaming industry:

Albert Gajšek from Circuitmess, who creates innovative DIY toys with video game elements

Marijan Nikolić from Playtracker, a platform for tracking and analyzing statistics in the world of video games

This list not only recognizes successful individuals but also provides them with the opportunity to be an inspiration to other young people who want to follow their ideas and dreams.

VIDI Awards

The VIDI Awards celebrate excellence in high technologies and ICT. Among the many categories, the “30 Under 30” award highlights the best technological innovators, entrepreneurs and scientists. This year, young people from the gaming industry were particularly noted:

Stefan Vedrina from HIROMA studio was on their list thanks to the success of the game Moopies

Rea Budić from Tiny Meow studio won the award in the Top 50 Tech Women in Croatia category for her work on the game Bura: The Way the Wind Blows

Dominik Cvetkovski from ANIQ studio achieved special success, as he is the only winner of the award on both “30 Under 30” lists – both Lider and VIDI Awards – confirming his contribution to the gaming industry.

A strong future for Croatian gaming and technology! These programs not only celebrate the achievements of young people, but also motivate and encourage the growth of the domestic gaming and technology scene. With more and more innovations and successful projects, Croatian entrepreneurs and creatives prove that they have global potential. We congratulate all the awardees and thank VIDI magazine for 30 years of contribution to the technology community! We hope to see even more young talents from the gaming industry on these prestigious lists in the future.
