It was a double celebration for Evolution Gaming at this year’s EGR (eGaming Review) B2B Awards with the company once again named Live Casino Supplier of the Year, while also picking up the Multi-Channel Supplier of the Year award.
Evolution beat eight other shortlisted suppliers to win the Live Casino Supplier top spot, and 11 others to win the Multi-Channel Supplier award for the first time.
In a remarkable unbroken run of nine wins, Evolution Gaming has retained the Live Casino Supplier of the Year award in every single year since the EGR B2B Awards began in 2010.
Speaking after the awards ceremony, Martin Carlesund, Evolution Group CEO said: “These last 12 months have seen Evolution once again push the boundaries, working tirelessly to extend our position as the number one Live Casino supplier in an increasingly competitive market.”
Carlesund continued: “New Evolution games launched in this past year have included our ground-breaking Lightning Roulette, which was an immediate commercial success for our operators, Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker, including a dedicated ‘First Five’ Progressive Jackpot, and our first ever on-premise Dual Play Baccarat table, at the Grosvenor Victoria Casino in London. We also launched our Salon Privé, the world’s best and most flexible online VIP environment, and extended choice for all types of Baccarat players with the launch of No Commission Baccarat and Dragon Tiger. We also opened our first North American studio, in Vancouver, Canada, and our third major central Live Casino studio in Europe, in Tbilisi, Georgia”
Responding to Evolution being named top Multi-Channel Supplier, Carlesund, said: “We are so delighted, not least because this is a really tough category in which we were up against 11 other shortlisted suppliers.
“The focus of Evolution’s Multi-Channel submission was our bespoke Dual Play convergence solution, which allows on-premise and online players to play at the same land-based table. Having established market leadership initially with Evolution Dual Play Roulette, this year we launched our first ever Dual Play Baccarat table.
“Evolution Dual Play is now clearly the convergence solution of choice for the world’s top land-based casinos — our Dual Play tables are performing exceptionally well on the gaming floors of venues such as London’s Hippodrome Casino, the Grosvenor Victoria, and at the Genting International Casino, Resorts World Birmingham and Genting Manchester to name but a few.”
