Playtech leads the way at eGR B2B Awards

Playtech walked away with four trophies from the eGaming Review B2B Awards, closely followed by Microgaming and Net Entertainment with three each.

The solutions provider rounded off a hugely successful year with the bingo supplier, poker network, slot provider and bingo network prizes at last night’s ceremony held at the Pavilion in the Tower of London. Microgaming and Net Entertainment took home a haul of three trophies each, with Micro beating off competition from Amaya Gaming to take home Poker Software of the Year.

The software supplier also won two innovation prizes, for its RNG casino offering and bingo, while it narrowly missed out on the live casino prize, which was won by Evolution Gaming.

Net Entertainment took home Innovation in Slot Provision for the second year running, and the success of its mobile offering was recognised with two awards. The Stockholm-based slots developer won both Innovation in Mobile and Mobile Supplier, also receiving a commendation for its slots offering.

The rising star gongs, two of the most fiercely contested awards of the evening, were taken home by enteraction in the services, and Quickspin in the software category. After losing out to NextGen Gaming for social gaming supplier of the year in 2012, Leander Games took home the trophy this year.

Australian social sports firm Favourit.com was another notable winner, after deals with the likes of Paddy Power and Tabcorp’s Luxbet brand helped it secure the Innovation in Sports Betting Software prize.
