Czech Republic-headquartered gaming supplier strengthens its executive management structure with newly created CEO position
SYNOT Group has appointed its first chief executive officer with Katarína Polách Klčovská promoted to the newly created role.
Klčovská has been part of SYNOT Group for more than thirteen years, primarily serving as chief financial officer of Synot Games in recent years, where she helped to drive digital transformation and strategic projects across multiple jurisdictions.
In her previous role, she oversaw the group’s activities across Central and Southeastern Europe, while simultaneously leading the development of newly established business structures in the United States.
“I am confident that she will bring extensive experience gained during more than thirteen years within the group,” said SYNOT Group founder and owner Ivo Valenta. “Throughout her career at SYNOT, she has held numerous specialist and management positions and has actively participated in the implementation of strategic projects across the group.
“Her professional expertise, long-standing experience and in-depth understanding of the group’s operations make her the natural choice for this position. As CEO, she will be responsible for the group’s day-to-day management, the execution of strategic objectives and ensuring its long-term growth. The creation of this position marks another important step in strengthening the group’s governance and enhancing cooperation across all companies within the SYNOT Group structure.”
As CEO, Klčovská will focus on further strengthening the group’s growth, expanding its international presence, and accelerating the development of its digital activities.
“I greatly appreciate the trust that has been placed in me,” said Klčovská. “Today, SYNOT stands on solid foundations, and my goal is to continue building on them while responding to the rapid technological developments shaping not only our core industries. Delivering on the shareholder’s strategic objectives remains my highest priority.
“I am committed to further strengthening the SYNOT brand, enhancing the group’s international position and creating the conditions for its sustainable long-term growth, whether through the dedicated work of our teams, the effective use of modern technologies, M&A activities or potential optimisation. At the heart of this approach will be disciplined performance management, growth in key indicators and systematic capital creation.”
