Helio Gaming names Keith Galea new CEO

Change in management sees former COO direct day-to-day operations

Lottery games provider Helio Gaming has appointed Keith Galea as Chief Executive Officer.

Galea is a highly respected figure in the industry with a reputation for driving operational success. He will manage the company’s day-to-day functions, as former CEO Richard Mifsud moves to a consultancy role with a focus on ensuring business continuity and growth.

Galea joined Helio Gaming as Chief Operating Officer in June, bringing a wealth of experience including tenures as Chief Product Officer at Bit8 and managing director of the leading consultancy firm Consult Labs.

Keith Galea, Helio Gaming CEO, said: “I’m delighted to be taking over as CEO of Helio Gaming and honoured to be given the opportunity to help build on the company’s commercial achievements to date.

“Helio Gaming’s lottery solutions are an asset for any operator looking to diversify its games portfolio, and I think their universal appeal will help the business go from strength to strength in the years to come.”

Richard Mifsud said: “I’m looking forward to exploring new business opportunities for Helio Gaming as we look to capitalise on promising new markets in places like Asia and Africa.

“We are making in-roads there already and freeing up my time to explore further opportunities will be beneficial.”
