Nueva Codere announces its CEO succession plan
- Vicente Di Loreto will step down from the CEO position, having completed both the operational transformation and financial restructuring of the Group and having reached an important personal milestone following an intensive professional career that has spanned 35 years.
- The succession plan encompasses a transition period to be completed on June 30. From July 1, 2022, Alberto González del Solar and Alejandro Rodino, currently Retail COO and Chief Strategy & Corporate Areas Officer, respectively, will be appointed Co-CEOs of the Group.
- From July 1, Di Loreto will continue his commitment to the Group as Board member and senior advisor to the management team.
Vicente Di Loreto, CEO of Codere Group since January 2018, has decided to gradually withdraw from his executive functions as CEO although will remain committed to the Group as Board member and senior advisor to the management team. This personal decision follows an intensive career spanning 35 year, most in an executive capacity, and will permit him to devote more time to his family and personal projects, while continuing to contribute his knowledge and experience to the Group in this new role.
In an orderly transition that, subject to shareholder approval, will be completed on June 30, Di Loreto will transfer his executive duties to Alberto González del Solar and Alejandro Rodino, both of whom will start to hold office as Co-CEOs on July 1, 2022.
“It has been an honour these last four years to be CEO of Codere Group. Alejandro, Alberto and I have been working together for many years and I am convinced that this new arrangement captures what is best for the Company. On completion of the restructuring, I have made a lifestyle decision and decided to pass on the baton of executive responsibility. This will allow me to have more time and flexibility, but my commitment to the project, the new board and the management team will remain intact in my new role as Director and senior advisor to the management”, declared Di Loreto.
Alejandro Rodino currently holds the position of Chief Strategy and Corporate Areas Officer. Previously he held the position of Retail COO for Spain and has been a key member of the executive team, with increasing responsibility for business operations and strategy. He has wide experience in the gaming industry and has been involved with Codere since 2003, either as a consultant or as an employee in various positions. He previously worked in investment banking, in several international assignments related to mergers and acquisitions, fund raising and strategic consultancy.
Alberto González del Solar has held the position of Retail COO since 2019. Before his current role he has been a key member of the executive team, assisting the previous Retail COO in Latin America, provisionally holding the position of IT and Platform Director and was part of the leading team implementing the Transformation Plan of the group. Previously, Mr. González del Solar managed the Argentinean business for several years, at a time when this business unit became the main EBITDA and cash contributor of the Group. Before joining Codere in 2005, he held management positions in several companies in Argentina.
Rodino and Gonzalez de Solar have worked closely together at Codere for over 15 years and have deep operational and strategic experience, both of the Group and the markets in which it operates. They are currently leading on the preparation of the Business Plan 2022-2026, which is under discussion with the Board and shortly to be finalized.
Christopher Bell, non-executive Chairman of Nueva Codere, explains: “Under the leadership of Vicente Di Loreto, the Company has achieved both an operational transformation and financial restructuring in extremely challenging circumstances. He has put all the pieces in place to allow the business return to growth after two years of pandemic. We are grateful for his achievements and fully support his decision, convinced that from his new position of responsibility he will continue to contribute knowledge and experience of great value to the Group. Alejandro Rodino and Alberto González del Solar are two professionals with in-depth knowledge of the industry and renowned throughout the Company, within which they have been cooperating from several positions of responsibility for more than 15 years. During the time we have spent together, we have been able to confirm their commitment and performance and I am excited and honored to be leading a business with a management team of this caliber and strength in depth”.

XSOLLA WEB SHOP AND SINGULAR JOIN FORCES TO DELIVER CROSS-PLATFORM LTV AND ROAS MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS
Xsolla Web Shop And Singular S2S Integration Bridges The Gap Between Mobile Marketing And Web Transactions For Complete Campaign Visibility
Xsolla, a global video game commerce company that helps developers launch, grow, and monetize their games, today announced a new mobile-focused Server-to-Server (S2S) integration with Singular, a leading marketing analytics and attribution platform. The integration unifies mobile marketing data with direct-to-consumer web purchases, enabling developers to measure campaign performance and player value more accurately than ever before.
As mobile game makers increasingly turn to Web Shops to expand revenue streams beyond app stores, one challenge has persisted: how to tie those off-platform transactions back to mobile marketing spend. The Xsolla Web Shop + Singular S2S integration closes this gap by treating Web Shop purchases as attributable events, giving developers true Return on Advertising Spend (ROAS) and comprehensive Lifetime Value (LTV) insights.
Key advantages of the Xsolla Web Shop + Singular S2S integration:
- Capture both mobile and web purchases as part of a single funnel
- Link revenue directly to user acquisition and re-engagement campaigns
- Reveal the complete LTV picture across app and Web Shop transactions
With this integration, Web Shop purchases are transmitted to Singular as server-to-server events, then mapped back to the correct install source or re-engagement campaign. This provides growth teams with a single, trusted view of performance across all platforms.
“Having launched more than 600 mobile Web Shops, we’ve seen developers demand actionable data that connects web monetization with mobile marketing,” said Berkley Egenes, Chief Marketing & Growth Officer at Xsolla. “Our new S2S integration with Singular delivers that missing link, giving teams the clarity to optimize and scale their Web Shop strategies confidently.”
“Our goal at Singular has always been to simplify complex data and make it actionable for growth teams,” said Gadi Eliashiv, CEO and Co-Founder at Singular. “By partnering with Xsolla, we’re giving developers the full-funnel visibility they need to measure ROI and maximize revenue across every platform.”
