Stockholm-headquartered slot developer Thunderkick has appointed Svante Sahlström as chief commercial officer.
Sahlström brings over a decade of experience to the role, having previously served as head of new markets for ELK Studios. He also spent six years in the iGaming payment sector with the likes of Zimpler and Trustly.
In his new role, Sahlström will spearhead Thunderkick’s expansion into new markets, including Ontario later this year.
“Svante is a fantastic addition to the team, especially as chief commercial officer,” said Thunderkick CEO Sven Grip. “His depth of knowledge and experience is sure to guide our journey into new markets and expansion within others.
“He joins Thunderkick at an extremely exciting time, with entry into Ontario on the horizon alongside substantial growth worldwide. We’re in a fantastic position to keep rising, and Svante is sure to play a pivotal part in taking us to the next level.”
Commenting on his new role, Sahlstrom said: “It’s an honour to be joining Thunderkick as its chief commercial officer at such a pivotal and exciting time for the company, and I’m thrilled to be able to contribute to its mission.”
“I’m looking forward to hitting the ground running, especially with ICE just around the corner, and focusing on delivering best-in-class customer service that I believe will set us apart from other providers. This year is set to be full of substantial growth and success for Thunderkick, and I’m excited to help drive that.”
