Etienne Azzopardi has been confirmed as the permanent Managing Director of B2B supplier Swintt, a job he had initially taken on in an interim position.
Mr Azzopardi had initially taken on the job in January following a restructuring process triggered by the resignation of CEO David Mann. He had previously spent four years as Swintt’s COO.
During his brief tenure as Interim Managing Director, Mr Azzopardi successfully oversaw 12 new game releases, including three key entries in the provider’s popular Elysium Studios line-up. These include Lucky Lads: Hold & Win, a standout title that has proven particularly popular with players and operators alike.
Meanwhile, the company secured two partnerships, with NetBet introducing Swintt’s games to its Greek offering, while SkillOnNet integrated Select, Premium, and Elysium Studios titles across its .com, UK, and Mexican brands.
Mr Azzopardi will now focus on strengthening Swintt’s content output and continuing to pursue expansion opportunities in regulated markets worldwide, with Switzerland expected to be the next key market targeted by the provider this year.
