The seventh annual International Gaming Awards has just finished up in London, one of the first events kicking off a full week of gambling conference and nightlife activity for thousands of industry professionals. The International Gaming Awards is considered as the “Oscars” of the gambling industry and it aims to celebrate the outstanding performance of industry professionals and companies from the land-based and online sectors.
Upon entry, guests were greeted with champagne being served and a dance party with a live band. The venue, the Savoy Hotel, was spectacular and served great food coupled with great service. Divas Incognito provided the evening entertainment. The two ladies sang opera and to get the audience to sing with them, they staged a mock X-Factor by bringing up two people on stage and having them sing. In attendance was Asia’s 2nd richest man, Dr. Lui Che-Woo, who won the Outstanding Contributor Award. The guys over at BetConstruct, nominated for Best Technology Provider of the Year, donated 600GBP to Care International. They won the auction for a Tiffany bracelet.
