It starts with a red carpet cocktail reception at 7.30pm, followed by a threecourse lavish dinner and free flowing wine, and petit fours, coffee plus top quality entertainment. A limited number of tables are available for the MiGEA’s 2018 premier gala event.
For the past 10 years, MBR Publications Ltd (MBR) has been organising prestigious business awards, among which is the highly recognized excellence awards in the gaming/iGaming industry, as the sector has become critical to the success and growth of any business. The gaming business community is full of talented and dedicated business entrepreneurs who not only run successful businesses but in many cases also juggle the needs of their personal lives. Malta’s iGaming Excellence Awards is designed to recognise the achievement of such entrepreneurs and their companies across a wide range of business categories.
A huge turnout of nominee companies, sponsors, distinguished guests, gaming business associates, relatives and ambassadors will be attending Malta’s largest and wellorganized gaming awards.
Vella said: “All Maltese gaming businesses rely on economic and financial wellbeing, prosperity while social and healthcare systems rely on local businesses creating a strong, local and international strong ethical business community. This event celebrates the iGaming companies doing just that; achieving great success and impressive results. Business leaders celebrate their success and network with their peers during this great event.”
“We are proud to have been associated with these awards. We form part of one of the largest growing SME in the Maltese Real Estate sector and have been recognised as a valued contributor to the local business community. We have not hesitated to support MBR Publications Ltd for its pioneering endeavours in such award programmes,” said Simon Debono, CEO of Simon Estates, exclusive main sponsor from the real estate and property market.
