Newgioco Group Inc. has appointed Richard Q. M. Cooper as an independent director of the Board of Directors with effect on August 29, 2019.
Richard has over 37 years of professional global finance expertise. He was the founder, CFO and director of Trident Gaming PLC, currently serves as Chairman of VR Education Holdings PLC and recently served as non-executive director and audit-committee chair for pool betting operator Sportech PLC.
“We are absolutely thrilled to have Richard join the continuously strengthening team at Newgioco at this stage in our global expansion strategy. Richard is a highly recognized industry expert and accomplished sports betting and gaming executive with broad complementary skills and foresight,” Michele (Mike) Ciavarella, CEO of Newgioco Group said.
“His extensive gaming experience with Trident, Sportech and specifically, his 9 years as Group Finance Director at sports betting and gaming company GVC Holdings in developing financial disciplines and reporting, M&A, investor communication, and seeing the group move up from an AIM listing to a FTSE250 constituent, should certainly be of significant value to Newgioco and our shareholders,” Michele Ciavarella added.
“I have known Michele, Alessandro and other members of the management team for a couple of years now so I am delighted to be able to join the board and help guide them as they work to expand their business and to counsel them on opportunities in my capacity as a non-executive director, which sits alongside my other complimentary executive duties outside the gaming world. Newgioco has an enviable advantage with having integrated control over its promising technology stack, coupled with a passionate management team with solid know-how in its highly contested core market in Italy,” Richard said.
