GLOBAL GAMING AWARDS LONDON 2022 RETURN IN-PERSON
The time has come to welcome the most prestigious Awards ceremony in the gambling industry back to London
With the self-nominations for the Global Gaming Awards London 2022 having been made, it's time to welcome everyone back to the Hippodrome Casino.
Following the success of our eighth Global Gaming Awards Las Vegas ceremony, which was held last month at G2E, it is now time to reward the strongest performers from the EMEA & Asia regions.
The London Awards presentation ceremony will take place on 31 January (the Monday of ICE London week) and will have 15 categories spanning the land-based and online sectors.
Operators and suppliers were welcomed to submit a short (480 character) self-nomination on the official GGA London website.
Fourteen of the categories are designed to reward companies from both the operator and supplier verticals, with the last category, Executive of the Year, recognising individuals who have made a significant impact on their respective organisations and/or the gaming industry as a whole.
Gambling Insider Editor-in-Chief Julian Perry said: “After hosting our Las Vegas Awards in-person last week, we are thrilled to start planning the return of the Global Gaming Awards London.
“The gaming industry in Europe and beyond thrived in the past 12 months despite all the lockdowns, and our London Awards will recognise all those companies who did not slow down and kept innovating.”
As ever, the Awards will be powered by Gambling Insider and voting will be adjudicated by KPMG in the Crown Dependencies. BetConstruct is the event’s Lead Partner and category sponsors include Digitain and Altenar.
