Betting & Gaming Council – CEO

There cannot be many industry executives who would fancy the job of leading Britain’s Betting and Gaming Council, a duty that falls on former Entain corporate affairs director Grainne Hurst. She will have to address the needs of the BGC’s diverse membership in a climate of rising taxes, more stringent responsible gambling requirements and an ever-hostile news media. A lot is at stake this year in one of the world’s largest gambling markets, but Grainne’s longstanding commitment to responsible gambling and her ability to engage a diverse range of stakeholders makes her the ideal person to lead the BGC into a new era of regulation.
