Two executives with Pragmatic Play have received new industry recognition as they were included in the annual Gaming Intelligence Hot 50 list.
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer; and Julian Jarvis, Chief Executive Officer, took their place on the roll that recognizes the most talented, innovative and influential executives in the gaming industry today.
Barzely has played a major role in Pragmatic Play’s growth in regulated markets in 2021. He and his team have delivered deals with operators large and small from established European companies such as Pokerstars, 888 and Kindred to Asian-facing giants such as Mansion’s M88 and emerging operators in Africa and Latin America.
In a press release, he commented: “It is an honour to be on such a prestigious list – it’s a reflection of the immense effort that has gone into 2021 from myself and my team. We’re constantly striving to take us to a new level that pushes the boundaries of what an iGaming provider can deliver and I’m proud and humbled to have been recognised.”
Jarvis also takes a place on the list having leveraged his extensive legal expertise to help Pragmatic Play seamlessly make its way into numerous regulated markets globally. “His ability to navigate around a myriad of compliance issues in different markets has proved crucial, maintaining and strengthening the company’s position at the fore of the industry,” the company stated.
“I’m delighted that my work has been recognised in this way and it’s a great end to what has been a great year for me personally and the company,” Jarvis commented. “Our widespread growth in various global markets required a well-defined strategy coupled with ruthless execution and I’m glad our plans have to come to fruition in such a satisfying way.”
Appearing on the Hot 50 list caps off a strong end to the year with the provider winning EGR Game of the Year, SBC Casino/Slots Developer of the Year, as well awards specific to the Latin American region.
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino, Virtual Sports and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.
