Fredrik Elmqvist, ParlayBay Executive Chairman, added: “Sports betting is becoming more nuanced and enhanced in-play and micro betting are all about superior prediction models and the ecosystem that surrounds them.
“Paolo arrives with great experience in this field and knows how to build a strong delivery team, whether that be architecture, tech stack leadership or collaboration with other partners.
“We are thrilled to have Paolo on board. He brings a wealth of knowledge to the role and I have no doubt he will elevate our offering even further.”
