The Pitch ICE stand at this year’s show.

Tuesday, February 10, 2015 (London, UK) – Voting has opened at www.GamCrowd.com/PitchICE  to determine the inaugural winner of Pitch ICE.

Presented by GamCrowd and Clarion Events, the competition saw start-ups showcase their ideas in front of attendees during 15-minute slots at ICE 2015.

Videos of the pitches have been published and the concept which attracts the most votes before the deadline on Friday, February 20, will gain entry to the GamCrowd Incubator service. The program is designed to help start-ups secure investment, fill skills and expertise gaps, and provide valuable introductions to operators in the industry for testing and distribution.

“From journalists to investors to suppliers to operators, the feedback from Pitch ICE has been extremely positive. It has given priceless exposure across the industry to everyone who took part,” said GamCrowd CEO Chris North.

“The competition demonstrated that our sector is a hotbed of fantastic ideas – the level of innovation guarantees that deciding on the Pitch ICE proposition with the greatest potential is going to be tough,” North added.

Pitch ICE entries cover a wide range of real-money and social gambling products across verticals including sports betting, casino, poker and lottery.
