Software development company BetConstruct appointed Vahe Baloulian as the new Chief Executive Officer, taking over the responsibilities from company’s former CEO Suren Khachatryan.

Baloulian has begun his terms as CEO of BetConstruct in January. He previously had consulted by BetConstruct on corporate and managerial strategy through independent igaming consultancy eGaming Partners Inc.

BetConstruct’s new CEO will work between the company’s London, Yerevan (Armenia) and new Los Angeles offices, as the technology provider expands its B2B services and competencies throughout the igaming market.

“BetConstruct is a game changer in this industry, I have been working with the company for the last four years as an executive consultant and I am thrilled to join their talented team of people who are bent on making sure that gaming industry continues to innovate and thrive,” said Baloulian.

Baloulian, with more than 15 years of experience in igaming operational management specializing in strategic product development, held senior management roles at 888.com from 1998 to 2004, Red Planet Gaming as a CEO from 2006 to 2011 and California Poker Network CEO from 2009 to 2011.

Meanwhile, Group Operations Director Ian Chuter leaves UK-listed online gaming operator Betfair next week, after more than three years of service.
