The EGR Operator Awards is a series of accolades given to online gambling companies by EGaming Review. Running for 12 years straight, the magazine calls its awards ceremony “the Oscars of the egaming sector.” According to its website, the ceremonies bring in over 700 attendees each year.
In addition to “Rising Star,” EGR gives awards for “Affiliate of the Year,” “Operator of the Year,” and various “Best of” categories for different gambling genres and services. Companies featured on this year’s shortlist include PokerStars, LeoVegas and Pinnacle.
