EGR, or eGaming Review, is a leading gaming industry magazine that covers online casinos and sports books, among others. Their knowledge and expertise have led the company to host one of the most prestigious events for gambling providers. The EGR Operator Awards give many operators and sports books bragging rights as the best of the best in their category.

More so, the EGR Operator Awards are considered the ‘Oscars of the eGaming sector’ for many providers. Award categories cover every aspect of online gambling, from games to customer service and social responsibility. The winners will be announced on 26 October at Grosvenor House, London.
