EGR and iGB L!VE have established a partnership agreement that will see the prestigious EGR B2B Awards aligned with the relocation of iGB L!VE to London. The award, now in its 16th year, will take place on July 3, 2025, with iGB L!VE occurring at ExCeL London from July 1 to 4 of that month.
The decision to partner the events in London, which is the largest and most important global center of the regulated gaming market, reflects a shared commitment to add more value to visitors, reduce travel demands, and provide participants with a more focused and impactful experience.
Naomi Barton, Global Portfolio Director, iGB Events, believes that the partnership complements both brands. She stated: "We are extremely excited to bring iGB L!VE to London and realize the brand's potential in a city considered the home of igaming. Having the highly respected EGR B2B Awards alongside what is one of the fastest-growing shows in the gaming space is the perfect partnership. The EGR B2B Awards will be held in conjunction with iGB L!VE with the former iGB Affiliate Awards taking place on Thursday, July 3.”
She added: “This joint approach by EGR and iGB L!VE underscores an absolute passion and a shared commitment to providing practical solutions for the gambling industry, creating valuable events that directly meet what our clients need and want, while saving time by holding events in one place at the same time. People's time and money are precious — this collaboration allows gambling clients to go to London and find everything they want and need in one place in July this year.”
Sam Compagnoni, Commercial Sales Director at EGR, commented: “I am thrilled that EGR is partnering with iGB L!VE to align the schedule of the EGR B2B Awards with the exhibition.
"With more gaming events happening each year, this partnership brings together the two original leaders in media and gaming events to provide a more streamlined and efficient experience for the industry. At a time when others may focus on division, we are proud to work together to better serve the gaming community. Our goal is to create a week where the focus is on learning, networking, and celebrating the industry's successes."
The EGR B2B Awards is known for recognizing excellence in service providers in the gambling industry and rewarding those who truly lead the way in innovation, reliability, and customer service. The award is judged by Deloitte, continuing EGR's promise to ensure that the judging process is the most rigorous in the industry.
The 2025 ceremony will take place at the Roundhouse in Camden, providing a memorable setting for an evening of recognition and celebration. After three days of exhibitions, panels, and networking at iGB L!VE, the award offers participants a chance to reflect on the past year's achievements and come together as a community.
