The Shortlisted Gambling Firms in 2020 – Global Gaming Awards Las Vegas

Today, we will take a closer look at Nevada’s biggest gambling conference and the related prizes, the Global Gaming Awards, Las Vegas. The event will declare the shortlisted gambling firms in 2020. Who were the most productive online or land-based operators? Who were the ones who did the most for responsible gambling in 2020? We will find out in October. Until then, join us and take a glimpse at the selected gaming enterprises.

Previously, we wrote about a must-see online gambling expo, the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) Las Vegas. Even if the current global health crisis caused the cancellation of all these conferences, the industry won’t stop. Finally, we can also meat the G2E organizers’ choices for the shortlisted gambling firms in 2020.

Global Gaming Awards in Las Vegas is probably the most important annual happening of the industry. While the event in London with the same name, mostly focuses on Europen and Asian markets and also pays attention to gambling advertisers and affiliates, the Las Vegas version is only focusing on the companies who are directly connected to the business. And of course, here, the US market is in the spotlight, and operators and suppliers who are important figures of global trafficking.

What can we conclude based on the shortlisted gambling firms?

First of all, the past year was difficult for every single participant in the industry. You could read about in the latest online gambling news that next to the global health crisis nearly all of them had to face regulations and sometimes restrictions which simply destroyed countless businesses. So, we can see, that the listed operators and other figures in the business are not just doing great work during the past times but also adapted to the new circumstances. We all hope that 2021 will be different. I won’t say better, more like less miserable. One way or another, we are all sitting on pins and needles who will be the number ones of this unexpected period. Stay tuned, and you can also find the answer in October. Until then, feel free to enjoy one of the shortlisted gambling firms’ online products.
