Two popular live dealer platforms and iGaming software providers have made new top-level appointments. Over at Playtech Samy Reeb is now a non-executive director and Swinnt has a new business development head to shake things up. Both brand names have built incredible reputations across multiple online gambling networks.
Playtech is a major player in iGaming, online sports betting and land-based casino and sports books across the globe. The UK stock exchange-listed company was recently in the news for another noteworthy business appointment, but not one that was made to enhance its own service.
Head of Regulatory Affairs, Ms Charmaine Hogan, a distant relative of Hulk Hogan (only kidding – cool name though), is now on the board of directors for the up-and-coming Canadian Gaming Association (CGA), which is a culmination of online gambling companies in Canada sharing information. More about this coming soon on our Canadian iGaming review – a page dedicated online casinos and bonuses available in Canada.
Swintt is also a major iGaming brand with the lion’s share of its activity surrounding the video slots scene. However, the brand also recognises the growth of the live casino scene. In 2021, SwinttLive came online and currently its portfolio consists of live European and American Roulette tables as well as Live Baccarat and Live Tiger Bonus Baccarat.
Live Dealer Company Reviews: We currently don’t have a live casino platform review for Swintt (coming soon), but we do have Playtech and many more. Find out more via the live casino game company info page.

Lars Kollind Appointed as Swintt’s Head of Business Development
Swintt, one of the more innovative online casino software providers, has hired a new head of business development. A seasoned commercial iGaming executive, Lars Kollind will play a key role in Swintt’s future growth plans. He joins the company after a long stint at global gaming provider Playson. As Head of Business Development, he will be responsible for the big picture, namely securing the best possible sales opportunities for the company across multiple jurisdictions.
In addition to his main responsibilities, Kollind will also be tasked with the important job of implementing the company’s growth plans. Having spent the past decade working for some of the most notable names in the online gambling industry, he brings an impressive track record and a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. His resume includes positions with Global Gaming, Aspire Global and Playson.
The company has a lot to brag about, including 140 slots and live dealer games, and a supplier licence from the UK Gambling Commission. This is not to mention the fact that it has formed partnerships with companies like Tipico and ComeOn Group. Recently, the company entered the UK market and struck a number of strategic agreements in the Baltic region.
Kollind has what it takes to excel in this high-pressure role. With a strong background in customer needs and acquiring business opportunities in the online gaming industry, he has a clear plan of attack to bring the Swintt brand to the next level.

Samy Reeb
11. January 2023 at 6:48 pmHi Jack,
Thank you for your article.
I would like to clarify that I have left Alpadis back in 2018 and hence the following sentence is not accurate:
“Samy Reeb will be responsible for the trust and wealth planning division of the Alpadis Group in Hong Kong”
Hi Samy,
Thanks for the info. I will correct it now. Appreciate you reading the news and giving us the correct info about your position. All the best in your new role at Playtech.
Thanks,
Jack
