QiH Group announces two hires and a promotion as it gears up for a brand overhaul
Affiliate and white label operator QiH Group has announced the appointment of two new members in its UK team and has also promoted Daryl Leagas to marketing communications director.
Daryl has been with the company since 2015, beginning as head of creative before being promoted to design director in 2021. He took up the newly created role last month and said his promotion reflected the company’s focus on driving performance and growing its revenues even further.
“Over the next 12 to 18 months we plan to rejuvenate our entire brand portfolio, focusing on our 12 Tau Marketing Services operator brands, our six Digital Adventure affiliate websites and our own QiH Group identity,” said Daryl.
“We’ve invested heavily in recruiting the right talent to help us drive this forward, and we’re really happy with the quality of the candidates we’ve been able to attract into the business.”
The first of the new hires is Richard Morton, who took up the new role of brand designer last week. Richard has worked in the gaming industry for a number of years, holding various roles at Betway over an almost three-year period and having most recently been lead designer at sports betting consultancy Editech.
In his new role he will report to fellow Betway alum Tom Murch, who took up the post of head of design at QiH Group in May. Murch was design manager at Betway’s Win Technologies for three-and-a-half years before joining QiH and he also previously worked at Gamesys for more than eight years.
Commenting on his appointment, Richard said: “I’m really excited to join the QiH Group family and to be part of helping redefine and grow the brand identity. I was particularly keen to take up the opportunity to work with Tom again. During our time at Betway, Tom and I collaborated on numerous successful projects, ranging from product enhancements to global sporting campaigns and a large-scale brand evolution project. I am thrilled about the potential for us to work together on new and exciting projects here at QiH.”
The second of the new hires is Sharon Joy, who joined this week as head of partnerships. She was most recently commercial manager at TAG Media, having been promoted from affiliate manager. Prior to that, she worked at marketing firm Kushinda, which specialises in working with igaming companies.
Jamie Walters, CEO at QiH Group, said: “We’re really delighted to have secured such an experienced new hire in Sharon. We believe she will do a great job of helping build on our already strong partnerships, with leading operators in both the UK and the US among our clients.
“We also believe our tech upgrade will play a significant role in growing our existing relationships and forging new ones. We’ve recently completed an overhaul of our back end and we now want to make sure our front end is equally good, with a focus on user experience and new brand identities.”
Commenting on her appointment, Sharon said: “I am excited to be joining a company that is growing as fast as QiH Group and I look forward to being part of driving this further forward. Key things that attracted me to the role were QiH’s strong relationships with existing clients, the opportunity to be part of its expansion into new markets, including those in the US, and the chance to work with such a data-focused and experienced team.”

Expanse Studios, a B2B iGaming content provider and subsidiary of Golden Matrix Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GMGI), has been granted a Class 2 license by Romania’s National Gambling Office (ONJN), authorizing the company to distribute specialized gaming software across one of Europe’s fastest-growing regulated markets.
The license, granted under Decision No. 273, enables Expanse Studios to provide its portfolio of proprietary slot games, crash games, and casino content to licensed Romanian operators. This approval positions the company to serve a market that generated approximately €600 million in gross gaming revenue in 2024 and maintains one of Europe’s highest channelization rates at over 90%.
Strategic Entry into High-Growth Regulated Market
Romania represents one of Eastern Europe’s most dynamic iGaming jurisdictions, with internet penetration reaching 88% of its 19 million population and a regulatory framework that has attracted over 50 licensed operators. The market has demonstrated consistent growth, with total industry turnover exceeding €2 billion in 2023, reflecting a 15% year-over-year increase.
The Class 2 B2B license allows Expanse Studios to distribute content to Romania’s licensed B2C operators without establishing a Romanian entity or paying Romanian corporate taxes, while providing access to a market where mobile gaming dominates and player engagement continues to accelerate.
Romania’s stringent licensing requirements under Government Emergency Ordinance 77/2009 make ONJN approval a significant credential for B2B providers. The regulatory framework emphasizes technical compliance, player protection, and operational transparency—requirements that align with Expanse Studios’ existing European operations across 1,300+ casino brands.
“Securing ONJN approval validates our technical capabilities and regulatory compliance standards in one of Europe’s most demanding jurisdictions,” said Damjan Stamenkovic, CEO of Expanse Studios. “Romania offers substantial distribution opportunities through licensed operators serving a tech-savvy player base with strong engagement metrics. This license strengthens our European B2B footprint and demonstrates our ability to meet the compliance requirements of mature regulated markets.”
Expanding B2B Distribution Infrastructure
The Romanian license complements Expanse Studios’ recent European partnerships, reflecting accelerating demand for the company’s content across regulated jurisdictions. With 56 proprietary titles including Super Heli, Titan Roulette, and Wild Icy Fruits, Expanse continues scaling its high-margin B2B operations across Europe, Latin America, and North America.
Romania’s market characteristics—including preference for mobile platforms, strong affinity for slot content, and established payment infrastructure—align well with Expanse Studios’ content portfolio and distribution model. The company’s games will be available to Romanian operators seeking certified, compliant content for their licensed platforms.
This license approval reinforces Golden Matrix Group’s broader strategy of expanding regulated B2B operations in jurisdictions with transparent licensing frameworks and sustainable growth trajectories.
