The EGR Global Europe Awards 2026 has officially named NuxGame, a leading B2B iGaming software provider, as a finalist in two of its most competitive categories.
The announcement, released this week, highlights the company’s recent trajectory of rapid expansion and high-impact marketing strategies.
Celebrating Leadership and Creativity
The shortlist includes a nomination for Daniel Heywood, CEO of NuxGame, in the Individual Achievement Award category. Heywood, who has guided the firm through a period of significant technical advancement and client growth, is recognized alongside other top-tier industry executives.
Additionally, the company’s “Shrimply the Best” campaign is a finalist for European Marketing Campaign of the Year (B2B). Originally launched at SiGMA Central Europe in Rome, the campaign used a playful, nautical-themed hook to showcase NuxGame’s upgraded casino and sportsbook solutions.
“This recognition reflects what we focus on every day: strong leadership, product-first thinking, and results that truly matter,” the company stated in its official announcement. “Thank you to our clients, partners, and team for the trust”.
A Milestone Year for Innovation
The dual nomination at EGR follows a successful 2025 for NuxGame, which saw its game aggregator expand to over 16,500 titles from 130+ providers. NuxGame also received accolades for its Web3 casino and gamification tools, which have helped operators increase player retention by up to 30%.
The EGR Europe Awards are regarded as some of the most prestigious accolades in the online gaming industry, honoring excellence across regulated European markets. The final winners will be revealed during a gala ceremony on February 18, 2026, in Malta.
