Developer and supplier of enterprise-level B2B Internet gaming software GAN plc has bolstered its strategic US market efforts with the appointment of David Goldberg (50) to its board of directors as a non-executive director.
Goldberg has over 25 years’ experience in the entertainment, sports and gaming industries. From 2013 to 2016 he was the CEO of ScoreBig.com, the first online and mobile ticketing company to pioneer the open distribution of off platform ticket sales. Prior to ScoreBig.com, he was CEO of Federated Sports & Gaming (2010 – 2012), CEO of YouBet.com (2008 – 2010) and Executive Vice President of Ticketmaster (2003 – 2008). In addition, Goldberg is currently a senior adviser to TPG Growth.
Dermot Smurfit, CEO of GAN commented:“David offers GAN significant US sports experience and his broad relationship network within the intersection of gaming, sports and Private Equity Industries in the US which is anticipated to prove complementary to GAN’s existing directors and highly relevant following the lifting of the Federal ban on Sports betting by the US Supreme Court earlier this year.”
