Marco Herrera has been appointed the new chief executive officer of DR Gaming Technology.
Co-founder and former CEO Jurgen De Munck will become the new group executive chairman with a particular focus on the company’s Infiniti Casino Group, while Herrera will focus on strategically driving the group’s systems, distribution and jackpot business: DR Gaming Technology.
“I have headed up DRGT since its inception with Michiel (van Dam, CTO) just over 20 years ago, and during that time we have managed to attract and proudly retain talented colleagues, and similarly formidable customers, something that I am even prouder to say we continue to do,” said De Munck.
“As a result, we have been fortunate enough to be able to not only expand our founding systems business from literally the basement of a casino in Belgium to one operating across five continents, but also widen our offering to casino operations; it is this new business sector that drove the need for a focused systems executive.
“Marco’s experience in managing a systems division for Bally and roles as a CIO, senior VP and president, fluently speaking French, Spanish and English, and having lived and managed offices in France, the Netherlands, Spain, Slovenia and the United States made him quite an easy choice. I have no doubt that he will assist us in taking DRGT to the proverbial ‘next level’; both from a strategic point of view and with regards to operational and product expertise.”
