Rising star casino game developer strengthens management team with appointment of technology veteran

Swintt, the fast-growing casino game and live dealer provider, has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of industry heavyweight David Flood as Chief Technology Officer.

Flood has been working in the iGaming industry for more than 16 years and over that time has held roles at tier one organisations including LeoVegas, Gaming Innovation Group, Tain, Boss Gaming and most recently Novibet where he was CTO.

At Swintt, he will be responsible for the delivery and operational running of game and platform development as well as IT systems globally. This includes ensuring that new systems and products are developed on time, to budget and integrated in an efficient manner.

Swintt is one of the fastest-growing game developers in the market and has quickly earned a reputation for creating casino content that is localised for growth markets and that taps into the different player requirements in each, leading to a superior customer experience.

This in turn has seen its content go live with some of the biggest operators in the sector including the likes of LeoVegas, Hero Gaming, Wunderino and recently Enlabs and Twin.

David Flynn, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “I am delighted to welcome David to the team and for Swintt to be able to leverage his incredible expertise and unrivalled experience when it comes to technology as well as the online gambling industry.

“We have grown at pace since day one and in order to continue to drive the business forwards, we require talent of David’s calibre. I look forward to working with him closely as we improve our technologies and processes which in turn will enable us to shift up another gear.”

David Flood, Chief Technology Officer at Swintt, said: “I am incredibly excited to be joining Swintt and to be given the opportunity to play a part in taking the business to the next level.

“My remit is to really get things into shape from a technology perspective so that Swintt is capable of entering any new jurisdiction with minimal friction and as quickly as possible. I already have a great foundation to work with but believe I can bring a lot to the table.

“I’d like to thank David for giving me such a warm welcome and I now look forward to getting on with the task at hand.”

New software option replaces standard table announcements across cash games, tournaments and formats including All-In or Fold and Spin & Gold.

GGPoker on July 9, 2026 announced Action Voice, a new software feature that lets players replace standard table announcements with voice packs recorded by poker personalities, including Doyle Brunson.

The initial lineup named by the operator includes ten-time WSOP bracelet winner Doyle Brunson, Daniel Negreanu, Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi and Kevin Martin, with additional voices “to be confirmed in the near future.”

Action Voice is available now across GGPoker’s product offering, including cash games, tournaments and formats such as All-In or Fold and Spin & Gold. Players can select voice packs in the desktop client via ‘My Page’ and then ‘My Action Voice’.

“Doyle Brunson may not be at the tables in the way that he used to, but his voice still can be,” said Sarne Lightman, Managing Director of GGPoker. “Action Voice is our way of keeping the legends who built this game part of the everyday experience – right alongside the players carrying it forward today, like Daniel and Michael. It’s a unique and fun new element to our software, and we can’t wait to reveal the rest of the lineup soon.”

GGPoker said more Action Voice packs will be announced in the coming weeks as it rolls out the full roster.

Argentina favoured by 80% of users to win over Switzerland
Spain narrowly predicted to come out on top over Belgium with 55% of users’ bets
France has been selected by 67% of users to pass through Morocco
