Global Gaming Awards - Americas 2024

SELF-NOMINATIONS

Nomination Details

In your submissions, please highlight achievements from the past 12 months and from the US, Canada and/or LATAM markets. Avoid generic company bios and achievements outside the Americas region as these are unlikely to get you a nomination. Please note that submitting a self-nomination does not guarantee your company will be shortlisted, it does however greatly assist us in understanding why your company should be nominated. Should your company make it to the final Shortlist, the reason for your nomination may vary from your submission.

THE AWARDS

The eleventh annual Global Gaming Awards Americas will recognize and reward the gaming industry's strongest performers across the previous 12 months. These are the most prestigious and trusted Awards in the industry and have gained respect amongst industry heavyweights, due to the strict rules and procedures put in place.

Companies are always nominated based on merit and the reason for their nomination is made public in the official Shortlist magazine. A panel of over 100 C-level executives from the industry decides the winners, with KPMG in the Crown Dependencies independently adjudicating the voting process to ensure full transparency and fairness.

The Global Gaming Awards Americas are powered by leading B2B-gaming publications Gambling Insider and Gaming America.

THE SPONSORS

Independently Adjudicated

KPMG has been the official voting adjudicator of the Global Gaming Awards since the very first edition of the event in 2014.

"The Awards may now be 11 years old, but what remains unchanged since day 1 is our approach to the voting and adjudication process - we review the Global Gaming Awards' system and tools for collecting votes (and ensuring judges cannot vote in categories where they have a conflict), check that the winner and runner-up in each category has been determined correctly based on votes cast, and select a random sample of judges whom we contact to check that the votes recorded for them in the system are a complete and accurate reflection of their voting.

KPMG's commitment to and involvement with this sector is unparalleled and that is why we have so welcomed the opportunity to support the Global Gaming Awards for the past decade – the combination of a thorough selection process, a highly distinguished panel of judges, and the organizers’ commitment to independent verification of the judges' decisions, means that any company or individual that makes it to the final shortlist should be extremely proud."

- Micky Swindale, Partner, KPMG Global Gaming Team

THE HOSTS

"The Americas gaming industry gets bigger, better and stronger every year which is why for the past decade, our team looks forward to every October when we celebrate the achievements of operators and suppliers at the Global Gaming Awards in Las Vegas.

The Global Gaming Awards have become the most prestigious Awards in the industry, and we ensure we maintain this reputation year after year. These are the only Awards that give a reason why each company and individual is nominated and if that’s not enough, we have a stellar panel of over 100 senior industry executives choosing the winners, with only one executive per company allowed to participate."

- Gary Roudette, CEO, Players Publishing
