The annual awards program recognizes individuals and organizations for their outstanding commitment to enhancing diversity, equality, and inclusion within the gaming industry. This marks the second year in a row that IGT has been recognized in the same category.

Winning the 'Diversity and Inclusion' category at the WIG Diversity Awards for the second consecutive year reinforces IGT's standing as a leading workplace committed to embodying a culture of empowerment for all colleagues globally," said Brian Blake, IGT Vice President, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
