About Global Gaming Awards EMEA 2027
The Global Gaming Awards EMEA 2027 is the 10th edition of the Europe, Middle East and Africa ceremony of the Global Gaming Awards, powered by the B2B publication Global Gaming Insider and with voting independently adjudicated by KPMG US. It recognises operators, suppliers, products and executives whose achievements in the EMEA region over the previous 12-18 months stood out. Companies self-nominate for free across 15 categories, from Sports Betting Operator and Online Casino Supplier to Crash Game, Affiliate Program and Executive of the Year, with Casino Product of the Year added for 2027 to give land-based casino products dedicated recognition. The Global Gaming Insider team researches every category and writes the published nomination reasons; shortlisted firms then submit a supporting statement, and a panel of senior industry executives votes for a winner and runner-up in each category. Winners are revealed at a presentation ceremony at the end of Day 1 of ICE Barcelona on 18 January 2027 at Fira de Barcelona Gran Via (the Market Restaurant, per Global Gaming Insider), and the event is livestreamed for those who cannot attend.
