Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific 2024: Winners revealed

The winners of the Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific 2024 were unveiled at a luncheon ceremony during SiGMA Asia at Conrad Manila today.

“Congratulations to this year's winners and to all those who were shortlisted, because as we always say, nomination alone is still a fantastic achievement,” said Mariya Savova, Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards.

“Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the Awards this year. Our event, dedicated to the APAC industry, was held virtually for the past two years, so to see it come to life at last was a huge milestone for the event.

“The Philippines is now the most dynamic and innovative gaming market in Asia with developments in both the land-based and online verticals, so it certainly was a great pleasure to have the Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific here in Manila today on Day 2 of SiGMA Asia. We are humbled by the response we received from the industry here,” she added.

With three events a year dedicated to the gaming industry in Asia-Pacific, Americas and EMEA respectively, the Global Gaming Awards are the most prestigious in the industry and are known for their strict shortlisting and voting procedures.

Companies were shortlisted for the Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific 2024 on merit and for a specific reason which everyone can read in the Shortlist magazine here. The final Shortlist was decided through extensive research by the Gambling Insider and Gaming America teams, consultation with independent industry experts and review of self-nominations, submitted by companies.

Over 30 senior industry executives, all with vast knowledge and years of experience in the Asia-Pacific region, were invited to choose the winners with KPMG in the Crown Dependencies independently adjudicating the voting process to ensure fairness and transparency.

Some of the people on this year’s Judging Panel include Betty Zhao, Senior Vice President of International Operations at Aruze Gaming Global; Ken Jolly, VP and Managing Director, Asia at Light & Wonder; Jaclyn Wood CEO of Global Players Network; Lucas Cai, Vice President of Gaming at Mohegan INSPIRE Entertainment Resort, to name a few.
