Microgaming Awards

Isle of Man-based online gambling software provider Microgaming has earned and obtained a high reputation in the online gaming world, one of excellence and quality. Their success was honoured last year when they received the “2009 Isle of Man Newspapers Award for Innovation and Independent Thinking.”

The annual awards celebrate achievement, dedication and excellence across all economic sectors of business and the community on the Isle of Man.

The awarding committee recognised Microgaming as a leader in the e-Gaming sector, and applauds the innovative thinking that has successfully driven the business forward since it developed the first online casino software over a decade ago. Microgaming has been praised for its efforts in promoting responsible gambling worldwide as well as locally with the establishment of the Microgaming Health and Care Trust. The company's research and development department have come up with many inventive 'firsts' for gaming enthusiasts.

This is not the first time that the gambling company has been recognised by the media; Roger Raatgever, Microgaming CEO, was named Business Person of the Year in 2008; as well as being awarded Company of the Year. In 2007, Microgaming also won the award for New Business and Programme Development.

Microgaming also supports the Island’s awards by sponsoring an award in a category for “Customer Service”.
