The prestigious Global Gaming Awards reached their seventh year of success this year. The gaming award event was run by the esteemed B2B gaming publication Gambling Insider and G2E. KPMG Isle of Man independently adjudicated the awards.
The Global Gaming Awards have gained popularity all over the globe and now they are counted as one of the most trustworthy award events. Usually, the event kicks off with great grandeur at G2E Las Vegas, but this year the event was held virtually because of the restrictions posed by the pandemic, Covid 19.
These awards are conducted to identify and honour the innovative and creative gaming technologies that are continuously changing the gaming world for the better. We all know how the face of Internet gambling has changed in the last few years. Professional casino players also play at real money casinos and enjoy great wins.
The contest was open until August 31, 2020, and the winners were announced recently, in October 2020. The winners were published in the November issue of Global Gaming Business magazine. This year, the authorities decided to send the award to the winning contestants directly because of the constraints imposed due to the corona pandemic.
An esteemed panel of judges conducted a stringent voting procedure, which included a self-nomination option and opinion from the nomination panel and the Gambling Insider team to announce the winners of the Global Gaming Awards 2020. The chief executives and CEOs from the world voted online for the event. These votes were audited by KPMG.
