Whitworth most recently served as the group’s CCO, and brings with him over 19 years of experience in the gaming sector. This includes C-level director roles at Entain, NetEnt and Light & Wonder.
“As the highly anticipated White Hat Studios go-live date approaches, the division has made a number of high-level changes to the existing team and has welcomed several new starters, including Armen Tatarevic, who will be leading the White Hat Studios Account Management team in the US,” a statement from the group read.
White Hat Studios was launched in 2021, and offers slots, jackpots, RNG, table and instant-win titles. The group also offers slot and table content that is specifically designed to appeal to US players.
“Our goal is to become one of the top game suppliers in the US market, bringing not only high quality content, but also high quality service to our customers,” said Whitworth.
“We have been going at an unprecedented speed, so it was important for us to follow up by carefully selecting the right people and build an industry-leading team at White Hat Studios.
“Combined with an exceptional portfolio of games, including our very own Jackpot Royale mechanic, which will inject life into the current online jackpot offering, as well as massive brands like Ted, Deal or No Deal and many more, we are very confident to hit our ambitious targets and shake up the market.”
