Global Gaming Awards EMEA Releases Full Shortlist
Gambling Insider has revealed the full list of nominees for the Global Gaming Awards Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) 2025. The Shortlist for the Executive of the Year category had been revealed previously, but now the full list for the other 15 categories has been confirmed.
The Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards, Mariya Savova, said the following about whittling down the nominees for each category:
We were overwhelmed by the number of strong nominations that companies put forward and it was incredibly difficult to narrow down the Shortlist to just 10 companies in each category. Those of you who were shortlisted should be so proud as this verifies that you are one of the 10 best in your field. And to those who didn’t make it to the final Shortlist this year, please don’t be discouraged. The competition has really been fierce, and you will have another opportunity.– Mariya Savova, Event Manager of the Global Gaming Awards, Global Gaming Awards, in an interview for the Gambling Insider
Every company that makes it onto a Shortlist does so through merit alone. Becoming a nominee is very much an achievement in itself, and winning is a great feat that can take a company’s reputation and prestige to the next level.
The winners are decided by a panel of 50 senior executives who have a wealth of industry experience among them. Some of the members of the 2025 event’s panel include Daniela Johansson, Deputy CEO of Paf; Werner Becher, CEO of Kambi; and Siobhan Lane, the CEO-Gaming of Light & Wonder.
