Tamer Hassan, renowned actor, entrepreneur, and founder of The Tamer Hassan Academy of Acting, joins the Board as an independent non-executive director.
With an illustrious career in the film and television industry, Mr. Hassan’s entrepreneurial skills have also led him to success in entertainment, sports, leisure, and hospitality ventures. He has a passion for supporting emerging talent in both the UK and Cyprus and has a strong track record in business ventures across various industries.
Mr. Hassan said: “My journey as an actor and entrepreneur, working successfully over many years with some of the biggest household entertainment brands, has given me unique insights into industry, and I look forward to contributing my expertise to the growth and success of Lottery.com.”

With an impressive career spanning over four decades, Mr. Jordan has held senior positions with top Formula One teams and renowned motorsport brands.

These Board changes come as part of Lottery.com’s dedication to maintaining a strong leadership team and ensuring the Company’s continued growth and success in the global gaming market.
