Vindral has strengthened its board of directors with the appointment of iGaming industry veteran Henrik Fagerlund as Chairman of the Board.

Henrik brings more than 20 years of experience across both B2C and B2B gaming. He has held senior leadership roles at Evolution and NetEnt, and most recently spent three years as Managing Director of RAW Live at RAW iGaming, where he oversaw the development of new live gameshow formats. After many years in Malta, Henrik recently returned to Stockholm, where he has also been running his own consultancy business supporting a range of gaming companies.

Founded a decade ago by a team of Swedish technologists with expertise in video, audio, real-time streaming, and AI, Vindral provides a high-performance live video platform purpose-built for the demands of modern live gameshow broadcasting studios, where quality, control, innovation, and scalability are essential.

Daniel Alinder, Chief Executive Officer at Vindral, commented: “We’re delighted to welcome Henrik as Chairman of the Board, and also as an active working member who will contribute to both business development and marketing. Beyond his extensive industry knowledge, Henrik brings a proven ability to grow businesses and build strong teams. At Vindral, we’re scaling our platform across multiple verticals, from live auctions and sports to broadcasting and, most importantly, iGaming. Henrik’s insight into both the product and commercial sides of this industry will be invaluable as we strengthen our position and accelerate growth. His appointment marks an exciting step forward for the company.”

Henrik Fagerlund, newly appointed Chairman of the Board at Vindral, said:
“I’m very pleased to join Vindral at such an exciting stage of its journey. Having known the team since their RealSprint days, I’ve seen first-hand their ability to solve complex challenges in live streaming and gaming. With innovations like AI-powered Computer Vision and Custom Trackers, Vindral is pushing boundaries in a way that few others can. I look forward to contributing my experience and network to support the company’s continued growth.”
