If you thought that was all, let’s take a deeper look at his CV!

Curwen was also part of the William Hill team where he contributed to senior positions such as chief gaming product officer, and his career saw a flourishing in RandomGamesLimited UK and Ladbrokes.

The provider’s chairman, Itai Frieberger, stated: “The board is thrilled to announce that James Curwen has agreed to join us as the new CEO of Yggdrasil. We believe he possesses the skills and experience to elevate the business to new heights.”

Frieberger also extended his appreciation to Krantz, who was leaving the position. He conveyed, “On behalf of the board, I want to express our gratitude to Bjorn for his hard work and dedication over the last four years at Yggdrasil.”

Krantz also added: “Since day one, my work with Yggdrasil has been focused on transformation and, as the company now enters the next phase of its global developments, it’s time for me to hand over the reins. James Curwen is an industry veteran; he will bring invaluable experience and leadership to the company as it enters the next phase of driving sustainable, profitable growth. It’s his time to lead.”
