BetMGM has appointed Andrew Hagopian as chief legal officer as the company continues its expansion in regulated sports betting and iGaming markets.

BetMGM chief executive Adam Greenblatt commented: “Andrew’s deep industry experience, and proven ability to build and lead a world-class legal team, will serve BetMGM well as we continue to grow rapidly in a dynamic industry.”
