Gaming heroes to be celebrated at ICE

The milestone achievements of organisations and individuals in the gaming industry will be celebrated at the ICE London show.

The February 1-3 exhibition will be the first ICE since 2020. The Landmark Awards, initiated by show organiser Clarion Events, will recognise the “extraordinary” within the international gaming industry.

Said Stuart Hunter, managing director of Clarion Gaming (pictured): “The Landmark Awards, which are presented on the show floor during ICE London, recognise milestone events whether they be business, industry or community related.

“We want to recognise those businesses that have broken all sales records, those that have celebrated 40-plus years in the industry or undertaken valuable social initiatives in their community such as helping the vulnerable during the Covid pandemic.

“There are also the industry stalwarts who have been with the same business for decades as well as the long-term exhibitors and visitors to ICE London and to its predecessor ATEI.

“As the show organisers we are often reminded that the vast majority of the game-changing landmark products and services that have had a fundamental impact on the industry have been debuted at ICE.

“It is therefore fitting and totally appropriate that we celebrate and recognise the extraordinary achievements of organisations and individuals when the industry unites once again in London.”

He added: “The industry often suffers from a misinformed negative narrative. The Landmark Awards are an opportunity to redress the balance and shine a light on some of the positive stories, milestones and extraordinary initiatives undertaken by the gaming community.

“Nominations for an ICE London Landmark Award including a brief description of the achievement can be sent to my personal email address [email protected] by January 4.”
