2018 International Gaming Awards Winners

The 11th International Gaming Awards (IGA), known as “the Oscars of the global gaming industry,” took place on February 5, 2018 at the Grosvenor House in London. The awards ceremony recognizes gaming operators in both the land-based and online casino industries and is supported by industry insiders and gaming clients across all tiers of the gaming world.

In addition to being a night of recognizing industry achievements, the IGA is also a fundraiser for charity. This year, the IGA donated to CARE, a non-profit organization that fights poverty and world hunger. So far, the IGA has raised £255,000.
