Almost 200 people gathered to celebrate the “spirit of fair play” at a ceremony organised by AIPS with the support of the World Lottery Association (WLA), the City of Lausanne and the Canton de Vaud.
The Sandoz Room of Lausanne’s Beau-Rivage Palace Hotel was transformed for a glittering awards gala co-hosted by Marc Maury and CIFP Secretary General, Jean Dury.
