Sportsbook and iGaming provider GR8 has updated its management team by expanding Chief Technology Officer, Artur Ashyrov, and Chief Revenue Officer, Oleksandr Feshchenko’s respective roles – as the pair step in as new deputy CEOs.
The move comes as current CEO, Evgen Belousov, takes a step back from his operational duties to focus on the company’s strategic and visionary initiatives moving forward. Belousov became the company CEO when GR8 rebranded from Parimatch Tech in early 2023.
Commenting on the appointment of the two new Deputy CEOs, Belousov said: “The greatest challenges and opportunities arise where the interests of different functions intersect. Oleksandr and Artur have a proven track record in cross-functional projects, showcasing their deep understanding of our business. Their new roles will enable them to steer GR8 Tech toward even greater success.”
As part of their new, enhanced C-Level roles, Ashyrov and Feshchenko are set to oversee the development of new initiatives and identification of growth opportunities – whilst continuing to manage the company's technological and revenue operations as part of their current roles.
Commenting on his new appointment, Ashyrov stated: “I’m a huge believer in the efficiency of cross-functional teams, having seen their ingenuity and fresh approach multiple times. Combining my CTO experience with a Deputy CEO perspective is an exciting and extremely interesting challenge.”
Oleksandr Feshchenko also commented on the development, saying: “Coming from the product side, I’ve always been invested in the entire lifecycle – from profitability to process optimization. As Deputy CEO and CRO, I’m excited to implement my vision for a more efficient and innovative company-wide flow.”
In additional recent company news, GR8 entered a content aggregation partnership which saw CT Interactive’s portfolio of gaming options added to its casino platform in April.
