Following a detailed review of all nominations, submitted by companies earlier this year, as well as recommendations from industry consultants and experts, Gambling Insider is pleased to confirm that the Shortlist for the Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific 2025 has been decided.
Those who have successfully secured a place in this year’s Shortlist will be contacted by our events team in the next two weeks.
“The past 12 months were eventful for the industry across APAC. We saw some important changes in the Philippines while Macau continued to deliver solid results,” said Mariya Savova, Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards.
“Elsewhere, the industry is looking at the next big gaming destination – Thailand which, some argue, may even surpass Singapore.
“Suppliers and operators in the region certainly had a busy year, and we can’t wait to celebrate the best of the best at the Global Gaming Awards in Manila this June,” she added.
For over a decade now, the Global Gaming Awards have been known as the most prestigious Awards in the gaming industry due to the strict shortlisting and voting procedures put in place.
Every company and individual has been shortlisted for a reason which will be made publicly available in the official Shortlist magazine next month.
The winners will be decided by a panel of senior executives from the APAC gaming industry. As per usual, KPMG will independently adjudicate the voting process to ensure fairness and transparency.
The winners will be revealed during the SiGMA Asia Summit in Manila, the Philippines. The Global Gaming Awards presentation ceremony will be held on Tuesday, 3 June, at the Conrad Manila. Companies can secure their tables at the event via this link.
The Global Gaming Awards are powered by Gambling Insider. BetConstruct is the Lead Partner of the event and other sponsors include Interblock Gaming, Aristocrat Gaming, SPRIBE, Z-Gaming, GR8 Tech, DSTGAMING, Bet88, 1xBet, Pronet Gaming and Uplatform.
After the Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific in Manila, Gambling Insider is heading to Las Vegas on 6 October for our flagship Global Gaming Awards Americas event, and to Barcelona on 19 January 2026 for the next edition of the Global Gaming Awards Europe, Middle East & Africa.
