In addition, EGT Digital has also been recognized at the ceremony. It won the accolade in the Best iGaming Supplier category in acknowledgment of its extensive portfolio of iGaming solutions, which includes its modular platform X-Nave and the in-house developed casino games. Earlier this year, EGT Philippines obtained Game Aggregator and Game Content Provider licenses from the Philippine regulator PAGCOR, enabling it to supply EGT Digital’s products to licensed operators in the country—an important step that significantly expands its reach into this high-potential market and the region as a whole.
The IAG Academy IR Awards are held annually as part of IAG Expo. This year’s edition presented awards across a total of 26 industry categories and 3 special Hall of Fame categories, once again cementing its status as one of the most prestigious competitions in the gaming industry.
