Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific 2025: Full shortlist announced

The Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific are returning for their fourth edition next month. 

Shortlist revealed 25 asia full

Following last month’s exclusive preview of the Executive of the Year category, we are now excited to unveil the full Shortlist across all 10 categories for this year’s edition of the Awards.  

The Global Gaming Awards Asia-Pacific continue to set the benchmark for industry excellence across the region. As always, every nominee was selected because of their achievements over the past 12 months, whether through innovation, leadership or outstanding service.  

The final Shortlist was determined through a detailed review of self-nominations, submitted by companies, along with recommendations from independent consultants with deep expertise in the Asia-Pacific gaming sector. 

“Congratulations to all the operators, suppliers and executives who made this year’s Shortlist,” said Mariya Savova, Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards.  

“Being shortlisted is a reflection of your dedication, innovation and impact on the gaming industry across the region. With only eight nominees per category and a rigorous selection process, your inclusion on the list speaks volumes,” she added. 

The winners will be selected by a panel, comprising senior executives with extensive experience in the APAC gaming industry. Each company is represented by only one executive on the judging panel. KPMG will once again independently adjudicate the voting process to maintain transparency. 

Notable members of this year’s Judging Panel include Cheryl Tiglao, Director of Slots at Hann Casino Resort; Jerry Chan, SVP-Electronic Gaming & Special Project at Okada Manila; John Gomes, Vice President Electronic Gaming at SJM Resorts and Naomi Richards, Director, Gaming at The Star Gold Coast, among others. 

This year’s winners will be announced during an exclusive luncheon ceremony on the Tuesday of the SiGMA Asia Summit, 3 June at the Conrad Manila. A limited number of tables are available for booking via the official event website. For those unable to attend in person, the ceremony will be livestreamed on Gambling Insider’s LinkedIn channel from 1pm local time. 

The Global Gaming Awards are powered by Gambling Insider and Gaming America. We’re proud and grateful to have BetConstruct as our Lead Partner. Special thanks to the other event sponsors: Aristocrat Gaming, Interblock Gaming, SPRIBE, Z-Gaming Asia, BET88, GR8 Tech, 1xBet, Uplatform, Pronet Gaming and DSTGAMING. 

Following the celebrations in Manila, Gambling Insider will turn its attention to Las Vegas this October for the 12th edition of the Global Gaming Awards Americas.
