On presenting Scientific Games with the Land-Based Gaming Innovation of the Year Award, Gambling Insider Editor Alex Hammond said, “Congratulations to Scientific Games for its win for SG Universe. This is the second mobile product that has won an award in a land-based product category, which again demonstrates how much importance the judging panel and the wider gaming industry as a whole believe these products will have of the development of the land-based casino industry moving forward”.
