In addition, by the request of Sinitus Nominees Ltd., 888’s largest shareholder, another non-excutive, Ori Shaked has been added to the 888 Holdings board.
Shaked previously worked for 888 as a business development manager. He has many years of experience in the gaming industry as a game producer and entrepreneur.
“It gives me great pleasure to welcome three outstanding candidates in Andrea, Andria and Randy to the board of 888,” said the non-executive chairman for 888, Lord Mendelsohn. “As well as further strengthening the group’s corporate governance structure, they each bring extensive and highly relevant skills and experience to our board which will be of significant benefit to the group as it delivers its long-term strategic objectives as an enlarged business post the completion of our acquisition of William Hill.
“888 has a number of very exciting opportunities ahead and I am looking forward to working closely with our strengthened board to continue to deliver the Group’s growth strategy and generate further stakeholder value,” he added.
