Vietnam 2026
The HOT100 Series
Southeast Asia’s premier gaming executive retreat.
Vietnam 2026.
The HOT100 is Winna Media’s flagship gaming executive retreat — an invitation-only, four-day event that brings together Southeast Asia’s gaming elite. Deliberately small. Deliberately exclusive. We built it around one simple belief: the best business relationships are forged away from the conference hall.
Furthermore, HOT100 Vietnam 2026 follows successful editions in Vietnam, Bangkok, and Thailand. As a result, this gaming executive retreat returns to Southeast Asia’s most dynamic market at exactly the right moment — as Vietnam reaches an inflexion point in gaming regulation and market development.
The venue remains a secret, disclosed only to confirmed attendees.
Why Sponsor HOT100?
This is not a conference.
It’s a completely different proposition.
Here is why the HOT100 gaming executive retreat in Vietnam delivers results that no conference can match.
Quality Over Volume
Every delegate is a decision-maker. Consequently, you will not find a more concentrated group of senior gaming decision-makers anywhere in Southeast Asia. No junior staff, no tyre-kickers — just the people who move markets.
Unforced Conversations
Golf, dinners, and excursions create the conditions where relationships form naturally. Moreover, people feel relaxed, open, and free from the pressures of their day-to-day. The introductions happen at the bar, not the booth.
Four Days of Access
The four-day programme creates more meaningful contact time than a year of trade show appearances. Therefore, you will leave with real relationships — not just business cards.
Vietnam’s Gaming Moment
Vietnam currently sits at an inflexion point in gaming regulation and market development. As a result, HOT100 2026 brings together the people shaping that story — operators, investors, suppliers and promoters — at exactly the right moment.
Programme of Events
Four days.
Every hour counts.
The HOT100 Vietnam 2026 gaming executive retreat follows the proven four-day format. Full details will be confirmed closer to the event.

What senior gaming executives said about HOT100 Thailand 2025
Seamless logistics, a relaxed 5★ setting, and a thoughtfully balanced mix of operators, suppliers, and investors made conversations easy and productive. Roundtables were concise, matching was on point, and I left with meaningful connections and clear next steps. Would gladly return.
The boutique size is what everyone loved — we had time to actually get to know each other. I think many deals were done, and many friendships built. These types of events are much more appreciated than the massive ones where everything is speed dating.
I thoroughly enjoyed the event — it was everything promised. A large group of high-quality people with the right attitude and a relaxed atmosphere in which to enjoy both business and the social side of things. The low-key but highly organised approach was perfectly pitched.
It was an excellent gathering of thought leaders and business alumni. Networking and business opportunities were excellent, organisation perfect, and the location was stunning.
Superb work from the team curating a fun, engaging event that was interesting, educational, and provided great networking opportunities. 10/10 would absolutely attend again.
Best experience of 2025 by far. Looking forward to 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need
to know.
What is the HOT100?
The HOT100 is an exclusive gaming executive retreat for senior leaders in the Asian gaming industry, produced by Winna Media. Specifically, it brings together 100 executives over four days at a five-star resort in Vietnam, featuring relaxed networking, sporting activities, business sessions, and exceptional hospitality.
In total, this is our fourth edition — previous events have been held in Vietnam and Thailand in 2024 and 2025.
Who attends?
Delegates are senior executives from across the gaming industry — casino operators, sportsbooks, affiliates, investors, platform providers and aggregators, game suppliers, payment companies, and technology providers. All participants must hold executive-level positions.
Additionally, we maintain a careful balance between buy-side and sell-side, so that everyone gets a valuable experience.
How is HOT100 different from a conference?
In short, there are no exhibition halls, keynote stages or badge-scanning booths. The entire four days are the networking. Golf, dinners, roundtables and 1-to-1 meetings at a five-star resort create the conditions where real relationships form — not just business card exchanges.
As a result, the boutique size means you actually get to know people, rather than spending four days speed-dating your way around an expo floor.
Why Vietnam?
Vietnam is one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic gaming markets, with regulation continuing to develop and investor interest growing. We held our first HOT100 at the Hoiana Golf & Resort in Quang Ninh province in 2024, and we’re delighted to be returning for 2026.
In other words, it feels like exactly the right moment to bring the industry together there.
Where is the venue?
The event takes place at a five-star resort with a golf course in Vietnam. However, we share the venue details with confirmed attendees only.
Why is the venue kept secret?
We keep the venue secret to ensure maximum privacy and security for our delegates. Moreover, everyone finds out at the same time — when they confirm their place.
