Revolutionary new online casino platform solutions provider appoints Relax Gaming, NetEnt and Betfair commercial executive to strengthen its all-star C-level team

Elantil, the up-and-coming online casino platform solutions provider founded by iGaming veteran, Jonathan Gauci, has announced it has installed another cornerstone of its C-level line-up with the appointment of Nadiya Attard as the group’s new Chief Commercial Officer.

Having set out on a mission to leverage Gauci’s 22+ years of industry expertise, Elantil is committed to creating a new kind of platform that puts control back in the hands of the operator. The company has promised to pull out all the stops in assembling an all-star team of iGaming executives. The announcement of Nadiya Attard, a business leader and industry innovator of her caliber, is certainly a step in the right direction. With her proven track record of exceeding targets and driving revenue growth, she’s a great addition to the team.

With over 20 years of iGaming experience covering both B2C and B2B, Nadiya Attard’s glittering career has seen her hold key positions at some of the industry’s major players, including Betfair, Microgaming, NetEnt, and – most recently – Relax Gaming. Throughout her career, she has built successful, high-performing commercial teams and played a key role in scaling businesses. At NetEnt, she helped grow the company from 300 to 1,000 employees, while at Relax Gaming, she was instrumental in transforming a startup into a Tier 1 supplier. Her wealth of knowledge and proven ability to drive growth will be invaluable as Elantil establishes itself in the marketplace.

Nadiya Attard also has fantastic experience expanding the market presence of her previous companies, thanks to her deep knowledge of all major regulated markets, including the U.S. This makes her a key player in helping Elantil operators achieve seamless market entry, a cornerstone of the company’s innovative approach.

As someone who has also run the rule over countless iGaming companies in her capacity as a returning judge for the EGR Awards, Nadiya Attard definitely knows a thing or two about what goes into making a successful product – and it’s this type of industry-wide insight in addition to her considerable commercial and biz dev expertise that makes her such a perfect fit for the position.

Moving forward, Attard will be responsible for planning and implementing Elantil’s overall commercial and marketing strategy, building a great team of professionals, while also ensuring the business meets key performance objectives and hits customer satisfaction targets – and with the company having only officially launched earlier this month, it’s an incredibly exciting challenge that she’s clearly looking forward to getting started on.

Nadiya Attard, Chief Commercial Officer at Elantil, said: “Having worked in iGaming for over two decades and held positions at many of the industry’s major players, I find myself in the fortunate position of knowing exactly what goes into making an online casino platform successful. What excites me even more is the opportunity to work with companies that bring something truly innovative to the market. Elantil is doing just that, with a unique product that not only helps customers save costs but also drives high revenues. I’m thrilled to now have the chance to showcase this knowledge and passion in my new role as CCO at Elantil.

“Having spoken to Jonathan about his vision for the company and seen the product in action, I believe Elantil has the potential to offer something completely unique to operators and I’m very excited to be getting in on the ground floor as we continue to build what will be an all-star team!”

Jonathan Gauci, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Elantil, said: “One of the driving factors for me starting Elantil was wanting to create a brand that does things the right way in terms of both its product and its people – and a huge part of that is having the right C-level team in place.

“Given we’re building the company from the ground up, this puts us in a great position where we can hand-pick the people that really represent our brand and values; and Nadiya certainly does just that. I’m very happy to be working with her on what will be a really exciting venture and believe her skill-set and in-depth knowledge of the industry will prove invaluable to Elantil going forward.”
