Ep 180: Gladiators leave the gambling arena

The second business week of 2024 rang in the sounds of change as Flutter Entertainment announced that its long-term stalwart, Richard Flint, will leave the company's boardroom ahead of the firm's NYSE dual-listing at the end of the month.

Coincidentally, 24 hours following Flint’s resignation, industry trade body the Betting and Gaming Council declared changes to its leadership and boardroom, announcing that Brigid Simmonds had stepped down from her duties as Chair.

Today IGaming Daily reviews two high profile executives ending their affairs with gambling, and what 2024 will have install for industry leadership, navigating a fraught and ever political industry backdrop.

On today’s episode of iGaming Daily, brought to you by Optimove, James Ross is joined by Edward Menmuir and Martyn Elliott to kickstart the week.
