The Financial Betting Operator of the Year contest was won by Bet on Markets while the Rising Star of the Year Award for companies under three years old went to Gaming Media Group.

VCBetAsia was awarded the Asian Live Gaming Operator of the Year and Unibet was named the European Live Gaming Operator of the Year.

Those attending were not too happy about the new format of the Awards as the prizes were handed out before the main dinner that was, therefore, only served after 9 pm.
