Inside Asian Gaming recently announced the upcoming IAG Academy IR Awards, to be held at The Ballroom at Hilton Manila, Newport World Resorts, on the evening of Wednesday 13 September.

The IAG Academy IR Awards – the first since 2021 due to Macau pandemic restrictions in 2022 – will comprise 20 award categories separated into four divisions: Resort, Gaming, Corporate and Industry.

This will be immediately followed at the end of the evening by a special Hall of Honor ceremony honoring individuals in the Asia-Pacific Integrated Resort industry who have made or are making important industry contributions (more details below).

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is now more than four years since a genuine Asia-Pacific industry awards was held, with an associated live Gala Dinner and Asian-based organizers. With the pandemic now well and truly in the rearview mirror, IAG recognized that the time had come to create a new and credible awards ceremony for the Asia-Pacific IR industry.

The IAG Academy IR Awards will be a live in-person event with a black-tie gala dinner, held alongside the two-day IAG Academy Summit. Organizer Inside Asian Gaming is an Asian born and bred company with an in-depth knowledge of the people and companies who have made the industry in this part of the world what it is today. IAG has the credibility and convening authority to organize the most prestigious, credible and recognized Awards for the Asia-Pacific Integrated Resort industry.

More details such as the call for members of the Judging Panel and for public nominations for individual awards will be released in the near future.

The 2023 IAG Academy IR Awards categories are:
