Gaming’s most respected technology awards reveal the top innovators in the industry—the winners of the 19th Annual GGB Gaming & Technology Awards. The GGB Gaming & Technology Awards are the industry standard in the field, recognizing excellence in innovation and practical application in all gaming disciplines. Hundreds of gaming products and services were entered into this important competition.
The awards prove that innovation did not cease with the industry shutdowns and other challenges this year has presented. In fact, the industry’s suppliers responded to the crisis with a host of new products designed to facilitate a safe return to business. Because of this, a new category was added to this year’s awards, Best Guest Health & Safety Product.
“Once again, the nominations for the GGB Gaming & Technology Awards represented the best new products and services in the gaming industry,” says Roger Gros, publisher of Global Gaming Business Magazine, which administers the awards program.
“As technology advances at a rapid pace, it’s often difficult for casino executives to stay current. The judges for the GGB Gaming & Technology Awards are some of the most dedicated and respected executives in the business, so their opinion carries a great deal of weight. The winners of this year’s edition beat out some amazing competition and demonstrated true innovation.”
The awards were presented in concert with the virtual Global Gaming Expo October 27-28. View the video presentation below:
Judges for the awards are: Claudia Winkler, president of GHI Solutions; Rob Russell, gaming analyst, Regulatory Management Counselors, P.C.; Frank Neborsky, general manager, the Downs at Albuquerque; Gerhard Burda, president and CEO, ESCAPES Advisory Services; Cliff Paige, slot director, South Point Casino Resort, Las Vegas; and Skyelar Perkins, corporate slot director, Choctaw Casinos.
Nominations for the 2022 GGB Gaming & Technology Awards will open in June 2021, and include new products and services to be introduced in 2021 or 2022.
