Sportsbook and iGaming operator Rivalry announced that Demi Abidogun-Benson has been appointed as Interim Chief Financial Officer, replacing Kejda Qorri in the role. The company described Abidogun-Benson as a financial leader with over a decade of experience in corporate reporting, auditing, and strategic planning.
Prior to joining Rivalry in February 2022, Abidogun-Benson was the Director of Finance at Swash Digital and spent more than ten years with Deloitte Canada working across the UK, Southeast Europe, and Canada.
“Kejda has been an integral member of our team since day one, leading the charge on our financial management strategy, public listing, and many other key initiatives across the company,” said Steven Salz, Rivalry Co-founder and CEO.
“We deeply respect her decision to transition out of her role in order to spend time with family, and on behalf of the entire team, we wish Kejda all the best in her future endeavors. I’m also very excited to have Demi, a long-standing and key member of our finance team, step in as interim CFO where I’m confident she will succeed.”
“It has been a pleasure to serve as Rivalry’s CFO and work alongside one of the most talented teams in the gambling industry. I have a tremendous amount of confidence in the brand, and its leadership team, and look forward to watching them grow,” said Qorri.
“I also want to congratulate Demi who will be stepping in as Interim CFO. Demi is a natural leader with a deep understanding of Rivalry’s business, and I’m positive she will continue her track record of achievement in this new role.”
On the same day, Rivalry also announced that it expects to file its second-quarter results on the morning of Thursday, August 29 prior to the commencement of trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. Management plans to host an investor conference call that same day at 10:00 am EDT to discuss the results.
