The CEO of IGT’s digital group is on track to be licensed in Nevada.
The Gaming Control Board recommended Gil Rotem be licensed when he appears this month before the Gaming Commission. It’s the first time he’ll be licensed in the state.
His licensing comes after funds managed by Apollo Global Management, which owns the Venetian, Palazzo, and Venetian Expo, acquired Everi’s and IGT’s gaming and digital business as part of a single enterprise in a US$6.3 billion all-cash transaction. The combined enterprises known as IGT are headquartered in Las Vegas.
IGT has offerings from lotteries and gaming machines to sports betting and digital. Everi develops gaming content, machines, and systems for land-based, igaming, and bingo operators.
