The Global Gaming Awards are regarded as the most prestigious in the gaming industry due to the strict shortlisting and voting processes.
Companies and individuals were shortlisted for a reason which is publicly available, and the winners were chosen by 100 senior industry executives, all from different companies and with vast market knowledge and years of experience in the Americas.
“Congratulations to all the winners and to all companies and individuals who were shortlisted,” said Mariya Savova, Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards.
“The Judging Panel had such a tough task choosing the winners as all shortlisted companies were worthy winners,”
“The pace of change in the gaming industry is increasing and I am already looking forward to seeing what suppliers and operators will achieve in the next 12months,” she added.
The voting process was independently adjudicated by KPMG in the Crown Dependencies to ensure fairness and transparency.
Gaming America would like to express thanks to G2E for giving the Global Gaming Awards a home, to the Awards’ Lead Partner, BetConstruct, and all category sponsors: Light & Wonder, Interblock, Spribe, Aristocrat, Novomatic, Play’n GO, Sof2Bet, Bragg Gaming, Playtech, Kambi, the SiGMA Foundation and SCCG Management.
