MCV online and in print is is the leading information resource for games retailers, media, publishers, distributors and more. Everyone reads MCV, from store manager to managing director. That’s why the MCV Industry Excellence Awards are so important,” said MCV publisher Stuart Dinsey.
Winners are voted for by the trade themselves. Our judging system is completely transparent and over 650 attend on the night. There’s not another event like it on the industry calendar.”
Five finalists per award will be revealed on Friday March 7th. Up to 100 named judges then choose the winners.
