The G2E Asia Awards has announced its first 22 esteemed judges and has called for more judges from amongst the industry’s elite. The awards — the official awards of G2E Asia — are to be held on Tuesday 15 May 2018 in the Ballroom of Macau’s newest integrated resort, MGM Cotai. They will recognize excellence and innovation within the gaming and non-gaming aspects of the industry in Asia — with both land-based and legal and regulated iGaming to be honored.
The call for judges can be seen on the awards website at G2EAsiaAwards.com which stipulates that judges “must have significant high level executive experience in or connected to the Asian gaming industry.” Judges can be executives from land-based or iGaming operators, gaming analysts, gaming media, gaming equipment manufacturers, gaming industry vendors or suppliers (slots, ETGs, or any goods or services), gaming academics, gaming lawyers, gaming consultants, regulators or former regulators, junket experts or indeed anyone with extensive industry experience. Judges will be recused from voting on award categories in which they are conflicted.
The G2E Asia Awards are co-organized by Asia’s leading industry event G2E Asia and Asia’s leading industry publication Inside Asian Gaming. Organizers have asked suitably qualified people interested in becoming a judge to contact Andrew W Scott by emailing ceo@asgam.com or by completing the webform at G2Easiaawards.com/index.php/judges.
