“In Chad we have someone with unrivalled understanding and experience who will undoubtedly be able to drive brand awareness and also help us enter new sectors and markets.”
Chad Ives, Sales Director at Continent 8, said: “The last five or six years of my career have been devoted to helping customers cut through the noise of complex technology decisions that come with regulation, compliance and data security.
“This puts me in a strong position to help online gambling companies find the solutions that best meet their needs as the US market continues to grow.
“I will also be able to help Continent 8 expand its reach into new industries and look forward to playing a part in driving this innovative and exciting business forward.”

The partnership also forms part of a broader collaboration, with potential to expand into additional North American markets.
Dima Reiderman, CCO at RubyPlay, said: “By launching with one of the most trusted names in gaming, we’re not only expanding our footprint in Ontario but also demonstrating the value of our multi-studio model.”
“Launching with Caesars in Ontario allows us to further scale our content offering within a highly competitive regulated market. Our approach is to deliver high-performing titles that align with each operator’s needs, combining the flexibility required for local markets with the consistency needed to scale, while ensuring efficient rollout and strong market relevance.”
Ricardo Cornejo Rivas, Vice President of Online Gaming at Caesars Digital, added: “We’re committed to partnering with brands that bring high-quality, differentiated content to our players.
