GiG Looks To Move iGaming Boundaries By Adding Experienced Industry Professionals to Tech Team

Gaming Innovation Group has big goals for the future and they have just announced their next big strategic step.

The Florida-based business has revealed that they are appointing Chris Armes as Chief Information Officer of the company. He will be responsible for developing the brand's technology strategy and will report to Robin Reed, Chief Executive Officer, forming part of the C-Level management team.

Building A Platform For A Future

As an experienced industry professional who held Chief Technology Officer position at NYX Gaming/SG Digital, Armes will now take strategic responsibility for GiG’s multiple technology assets, ultimately strengthening its position as the B2B partner and operator of choice on the iGaming scene. Besides NYX Gaming…

…he also worked for Oracle and has performed more than 60 M&As (Mergers and Acquisitions) throughout his career. His prime responsibility will be to ensure the robust and secure delivery of tech solutions to exciting and new customers.

BUT…

…Armes is not the only addition to the GiG team. The company has also recently hired Jonathan Gauci as Senior Vice President of Technology, Stephen Borg as Director of Data, and Jan Flores as Director of Production Operations. The brand is gearing up its tech management to oversee the roll-out of the next generation of the new Platform Services, data and Front-End platforms to be the platform of choice in iGaming.

Commenting on the new additions to the company’s team, Robin Reed, Chief Executive Officer of GiG, said:

“GiG’s vision is to make iGaming fair and fun for all. We want to do this by being a platform of choice for iGaming. To build the most flexible, efficient and scalable product we need to have the very best tech management team. Chris has the wealth of experience from senior positions within companies such as Sun, Oracle and lately with Scientific Games. Chris is the latest in a range of tech management hire and he will be a fantastic asset for the GiG team and its customers. I am thrilled to welcome Chris, Stephen, Jan, and Jonathan on board.”
