The highly anticipated results of the Global Gaming Awards Las Vegas 2020 were recently announced following an intensive voting process by a panel of 100 handpicked judges. CEOs, iGaming experts, and executives from the industry all cast their votes, which were audited and delivered by KPMG.

Leading B2B-gaming publication Gambling Insider powered the event alongside G2E with the independent audit being performed by KPMG Isle of Man. This marks the Global Gaming Awards’ seventh year, with each successive awards event cementing these awards’ reputation as the most trusted in the iGaming industry. The event, which is usually held at G2E Las Vegas was held virtually in 2020 due to the constraints created by COVID-19.

Aristocrat came out swinging, winning awards in three different categories for the first time. The company won the Land-Based Product and Land-based Industry Supplier awards, also grabbing the Slot of the Year category for its Dollar Storm game.

Scientific Games also raked in some huge wins, taking home two awards, namely the Digital Product of the Year and Product Innovation of the Year titles.

Seminole Gaming was another multi-winner, managing to beat out the competition for the Land-based Operator of the Year and the Property of the Year Awards.

Each sponsored category had its winner and 2 runner-ups, all of which are listed below
