Isle Of Man-licensed gaming software developer NYX Interactive has announced the appointment of former Ongame Network, Microgaming and Vision IQ employee David Flynn as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Flynn joined the Stockholm-based firm in January as its Chief Operating Officer after spending three years serving as Microgaming’s Head Of Operations and is replacing Staffan Lindgren, who was recently promoted with a seat on the Board Of Directors.
NYX Interactive stated that Lindgren is also working as its Strategic Business Development Executive Vice-President and will ‘on a daily basis have an increased focus on international sales and the utilisation of the newly acquired Cashball Limited’.
“We are tremendously pleased to welcome David Flynn into the Chief Executive Officer’s role for NYX Interactive,” said Henrik Albertsen, Chairman Of The Board, for NYX Interactive.
“I have worked with David at board level for just a short period and his work in positioning NYX Interactive as a leading player in the online bingo and platform provision space has been excellent.
“The recent acquisition of Cashball Limited together with a much enhanced product offering is just the first signs of the growing success that NYX Interactive will have. Our NYX team and clients could have no better leader. David fully embodies the success we are building for our clients.”
NYX Interactive has an established technology platform powering Svenska Spel, La Francaise Des Jeux, Bonnier Gaming and Betsson and revealed that Flynn served as Vice-President and Director for Ongame Network before joining Microgaming and worked as European Operations Manager for Paris-based Vision IQ.
“We are thrilled to welcome David to his new role,” said Lindgren.
“His dynamism and passion for service and partnership have been instrumental in the direction of our company’s strategy. Our innovative NYXicam bingo product and the flexibility of our Rapid Platform solution for new operators and regulated markets alike are helping to build NYX Interactive’s technology leadership in the iGaming world stage. Further, his hands-on leadership will be invaluable in advancing the commercialisation of technologies currently being developed.”
