Swintt has named Etienne Azzopardi as its Managing Director permanently, following a successful stint on an interim basis from the beginning of the year.
During Azzopardi’s time as Interim Managing Director, 12 titles have been released by the software provider, including Lucky Lads: Hold & Win and two other new additions from Elysium Studios.
Swintt has also agreed to deals with NetBet in the Greek iGaming market, as well as with SkillOnNet, bringing its Select, Premium and Elysium Studios games to the operator’s .com, UK and MX brands.
Azzopardi said on his appointment: “I’m delighted to have been appointed Managing Director at Swintt. Since joining the company in 2021, I’ve had a hand in everything from operational management and roadmap optimisation to market licensing and game certification, and the experience I’ve picked up in those four and a half years will prove crucial in my new role.
“Having spent three months acting as Interim Managing Director, I feel very privileged to be taking the role on a permanent basis and believe this will be the catalyst for Swintt to continue its outstanding recent growth in regulated markets worldwide.
“With a packed product roadmap already planned for 2026, it’s going to be an amazing journey and I’m excited to continue growing the Swintt brand.”
Back in January, Azzopardi was appointed as Interim Managing Director following the departure of Chief Executive Officer David Mann. He will now lead Swintt’s product strategy, future market expansion plans and ongoing team development.
Previously, Azzopardi served as the software provider’s Chief Operating Officer between February 2022 and January 2026, as well as Director of Operations from August 2021. He has also worked for Quickspin and Betsson Group.
Moving forward, Swintt stated that Azzopardi will be tasked with helping Swintt’s expansion in regulated markets worldwide, with Switzerland on the agenda.
