Strive Gaming Tuesday introduced Tommaso Di Chio as Chief Legal and Compliance Officer. Di Chio will oversee the Vancouver, British Columbia company’s adherence to global and North American regulatory compliance and laws and also help grow and strengthen Strive’s legal and compliance teams.

“The legal and regulatory landscape in North America continues to evolve at pace so it’s vital that we have a team of highly experienced specialists to help navigate these often choppy waters,” said Strive Gaming CEO Max Meltzer in a statement. “In Tommaso, we have the perfect person to oversee all legal and compliance activity at Strive and to lead and grow our teams. This is an important hire for us and will help us to continue to strengthen our position as the leading PAM provider in North America and beyond.”

Di Chio most recently served in senior legal and compliance roles for nine years at Kambi as SVP of Legal, Regulatory Affairs and Compliance, and Group Deputy General Counsel. He also worked as an adjunct professor at the University of New Hampshire’s Franklin Pierce School of Law and as an associate lawyer with Biagetti and Partners in Rome, Italy.

“In our fast-changing industry, the secret sauce is balancing cool new ideas with being responsible,” Di Chio said. “I’m all about pulling together the smarts from regulators, lawmakers and folks in the industry to make gaming not just a money-maker but also something we can be proud of. I’m thrilled to be joining Strive Gaming on its journey – a journey that we are in together every step of the way.”
