LeoVegas CEO Gustaf Hagman recently discussed with SBC News life at LeoVegas following its acquisition by MGM Resorts two-and-a-half years ago.
Since the takeover, the Swedish operator has doubled the size of its workforce and taken on what its co-founder regards as exciting projects, meaning he continues to be enthusiastic about the relationship with the MGM team.
“The trust that they put in our hands to launch BetMGM globally. I mean, that’s massive. And that’s reflected in the number of new employees,” he said.
