Myleene Klass Takes the Stage as Host of iGB Affiliate Awards 2025

 

Myleene Klass has been confirmed as the host of the 2025 iGB Affiliate Awards, set to be held on 3 July at iGB L!VE in London

Klass is known for being a TV personality and entertainer who originally shot to fame in the Britpop era. She was in the pop band Hear’Say, where they achieved four UK Top 10 singles in their time. She will host the Cool Britannia-themed awards that this year will hand out accolades for 20 categories.

The awards will once again be held at the Troxy, the venue set in London’s East End, which has an 80-year musical heritage and has featured performances by the likes of Liam Gallagher, Jarvis Cocker, Garbage and the Cure. It also served as a movie theatre and training school for the London Opera Centre before being converted to host live events in 2006.

Stephen Carter, head of affiliate content at Clarion Gaming, believes the popularity of the awards continues to grow thanks to its reputation for integrity and transparency.

“Our external industry judges are selected for their expertise on both the igaming affiliate sector and in specialist areas pertaining to individual awards, such as safer gambling,” he said. “They are also required to sign an NDA to keep all submitted information confidential and to declare any potential conflicts of interest. The industry respects the fact that every winning submission has succeeded entirely on its merits.”

Carter also confirmed that judgable submissions are up by more than 4% year-on-year, with the most hotly contested category based on nominations being Best Affiliate Programme. The fastest growing category is Best Affiliate Network, which is up by 79% from 2024’s awards. Best Digital Agency, Affiliate Idol and Best Newcomer, he indicated, are also key growth categories.

“Due to the quality of submissions received from non-affiliate businesses for the Marketing Campaign of the Year category, we have created an additional award to recognise the best campaign by an affiliate programme or network in 2024,” he went on to explain about the new addition.

Our brand holds a 360-degree view of the iGaming sector in which we operate, incorporating responsible gambling, a proactive approach, and an uncompromising commitment to stringent evaluation criteria.”

Casino Guru has consistently built an affiliate model that goes beyond simple deal-making, placing an uncompromising focus on players and helping them make informed decisions.
