A welcome from your host

The past 12 months have seen tremendous growth for the industry – H1 2023 became the gaming industry’s strongest half ever, and Indian gaming revenue for FY 2022 was the highest in history. 

Sports betting also continued to grow with Ohio and Massachusetts joining the roster of states with legal sports betting early this year, and Vermont, North Carolina, and Kentucky legalizing sports betting more recently.

The industry just doesn’t slow down, which is why every year we look forward to celebrating the achievements of operators and suppliers at the Global Gaming Awards Las Vegas.

This year’s event is extra special for us as it marks the 10th edition of the Awards. On behalf of our entire team I would like to thank all the companies who believed in our event from the very beginning, and continue to support it to this day. 

The Global Gaming Awards have become the most prestigious Awards in the industry, and we ensure we maintain this reputation year after year. These are the only Awards that give a reason why each company and individual is nominated and if that’s not enough, we have a stellar panel of over 100 senior industry executives choosing the winners.

There are quite a few high-profile CEOs on the Panel that have been involved in the process for a decade now. We know how much time it takes to lead some of industry’s biggest companies but they still ensure they take time out of their schedules to vote, which really means a lot to us.

As always, the voting process is independently adjudicated by KPMG in the Crown Dependencies to ensure fairness and transparency, so another thank you goes to Micky Swindale and the rest of the KPMG team involved in the adjudication. 

While we prepare to announce the winners on October 9, I would like to highlight that nomination alone is a fantastic achievement so congratulations to all companies and individuals that were shortlisted this year. We look forward to celebrating with you in Las Vegas!

– Gary Roudette, CEO, Players Publishing

Odds never exist in a vacuum. When bettors understand the context behind a line, they’re in a much stronger position to judge its real value.
