Former Hard Rock Digital and Entain executive will lead commercial growth across regulated markets worldwide
White Hat Gaming has appointed Leon Thomas as chief commercial officer, as the supplier looks to grow its presence across regulated markets.
Thomas brings more than 20 years of industry experience to the company, having previously served in senior roles at the likes of Hard Rock Digital, Entain and Tombola.
He most recently served as vice president international at Hard Rock Digital, where he led the company’s expansion into Canada, the Netherlands and Mexico.
He has also worked in the B2B sector, most notably at Microgaming and IWG.
“Leon has sat on both sides of the table,” said White Hat Gaming CEO Phil Gelvan. “He has run operator businesses and scaled B2B suppliers, so he knows exactly what operators need from a platform partner. He is the right person to lead our commercial growth across regulated markets worldwide.”
Commenting on his appointment, Thomas said: “I’m excited to join White Hat Gaming as the company embarks on its latest evolution. My focus will be on partnering with operators who need greater reliability and scale, and helping brands launch with confidence in regulated markets anywhere in the world.”
