Scientific Games nets brace at ICE 2015

Jim Kennedy, Chief Executive Officer, Lottery Group for Scientific Games, said, “Every day, our mission is to help lotteries create maximum returns for their government beneficiaries through operational and supply chain best practices and efficiencies, and by offering a great entertainment value for their players. We are honored to be a trusted partner and to have our work in 150 unique lottery jurisdictions around the world held in such high esteem by the international gaming industry.” Kennedy and Jack McNeill, Senior Vice President, Government Relations for Scientific Games, accepted the awards on behalf of the Company at ICE.

Scientific Games received the “2015 Lottery Operator of the Year Award” at the International Gaming Awards held during ICE 2015 at the Savoy Hotel in London. The award was presented to the company that has shown the best practices over the last year on the most important components of lottery operations, including innovative approach, ability to connect with and engage players, use of the lottery to serve the public in positive ways and bringing a range of lottery games and approaches that offer the very best options in playing. The winner was selected from both online and land-based lottery operators with the defining criteria not total sales rather the operator’s approach and its value of customers over cost.

In addition, Scientific Games received the “2015 Lottery Supplier of the Year” at the first annual Gaming Intelligence Awards held during ICE at London’s ExCel Centre. The all-new awards reward the excellence of the gaming industry’s leading operators and suppliers, recognizing the best performers based on merit, reputation and integrity.
