Push Gaming welcomes new Head of Legal
B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming is complementing its recent impressive regulated market growth with the hiring of Denisa Assefova as its new Head of Legal to oversee Push Gaming’s legal matters and support the company’s further expansion.
A graduate of the Charles University of Prague and the University of Oslo, Denisa brings with her key industry experience having served as the Head of Legal Affairs at the Betsson Group on the back of over a decade of practising law with a number of international firms.
Her skills in the fields of iGaming, IP, Licensing & E-Commerce and Contract Law will be instrumental in supporting Push’s commercial expansion in an industry where regulated markets continue to evolve and diversify.
The appointment matches Push’s ambition as it continues to enter new markets and expand its global footprint, thanks to its entertainment-first portfolio of quality titles such as recent smash-hit Jammin’ Jars 2, Mount Magmas Jackpots, and the upcoming Fat Drac.
Donna Kelly, Director of HR at Push Gaming said: “With great success and rapid global expansion brings the requirement for the right people to manage and cultivate the talent and drive we already have and Denisa brings that in spades.
“It’s of vital importance to us as a company that we adhere to the strict and necessary regulations that are active in all markets we operate in and we’re confident that she will excel in her new role. Welcome to Push Gaming, Denisa!”
Denisa Assefova, Head of Legal at Push Gaming said: “Push Gaming is a great company with fantastic and talented people who are creating remarkable products. I am excited to join Push Gaming at a time of its rapid expansion and look forward to supporting the company in achieving its goals”
Marking its tenth anniversary last October, Push Gaming is building on the growth momentum gained from 2020’s acquisition of an MGA and UKGC-licensed platform and furthering its expansion ambitions across Europe with several new market entries prepared for the coming months.
Established as one of the industry’s most entertaining suppliers, Push Gaming’s content includes the award winning Dinopolis and Jammin’ Jars 2, which are live in the lobbies of leading operators such as Casumo, LeoVegas, Entain, The Rank Group and Norsk Tipping.

Media Troopers Prepares for Alberta iGaming Launch with Canadian Gaming Law Firm
Media Troopers is positioning itself for entry into Alberta’s soon-to-launch regulated online gambling market through a strategic partnership with Canadian law firm Segev LLP.
The collaboration will see the affiliate marketing and customer acquisition specialist work closely with legal experts Ron Segev and Alon Segev to navigate the province’s evolving regulatory framework. The firm will advise on compliance, licensing readiness, and market entry strategy as Alberta finalises its iGaming model.
Alberta is set to become only the second Canadian province to regulate commercial online gambling, following the launch of Ontario’s market in 2022. The province took a major step forward with the passage of the iGaming Alberta Bill, which establishes a legal framework for private operators and introduces the Alberta iGaming Corporation to oversee the sector.
This regulatory shift is expected to open significant opportunities for operators and service providers alike, particularly as Canada’s iGaming landscape continues to expand. Industry observers often point to Ontario’s rollout as a benchmark, with oversight from bodies such as the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, which has helped shape standards around licensing, compliance, and player protection.
As part of its expansion strategy, Media Troopers aims to support licensed operators entering Alberta with localized marketing solutions, including affiliate partnerships and compliance-led acquisition strategies tailored to the province’s regulatory requirements.
Commenting on the development, Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers, said:
“Alberta represents one of the most exciting emerging regulated markets in North America.
“Working with Ron Segev and the team at Segev LLP ensures that our expansion into the province will be aligned with the evolving regulatory framework and positioned for long-term success.”
Segal added:
“Canada’s iGaming market continues to evolve rapidly. Our goal is to be fully prepared to support operators entering Alberta from day one.”
The move highlights a broader trend in North America, where affiliate and marketing firms are increasingly aligning with legal and regulatory specialists ahead of market openings. This approach not only reduces compliance risk but also allows companies to establish early positioning in newly regulated jurisdictions.

With Alberta’s framework nearing completion, early movers like Media Troopers are aiming to replicate the success seen in Ontario—where strong compliance foundations and localised strategies have proven critical to long-term growth.

The leading digital marketing and customer acquisition group Media Troopers has announced it’s gearing up to join Alberta’s upcoming iGaming-regulated market by partnering with Alon Segev, Managing Partner and Ron Segev, founder of Canadian gaming and betting law firm Segev LLP.
Alberta will become Canada’s second province to regulate commercial online gambling, following Ontario in 2022. The province passed the iGaming Alberta Bill last May, which brought with it a framework to allow operators to enter the province and the creation of a new iGaming regulator, the Alberta iGaming Corporation.
As part of Media Troopers’ strategic entry into the new sector, it has partnered with Segev, who will advise the company on regulatory strategy, compliance requirements, and market readiness as Alberta finalizes its operational and licensing framework.
“Alberta represents one of the most exciting emerging regulated markets in North America,” said Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers.
“Working with Ron Segev and the team at Segev LLP ensures that our expansion into the province will be aligned with the evolving regulatory framework and positioned for long-term success.”
As with Ontario’s competitive market, Media Troopers is dedicated to supporting licensed operators in Alberta with localized marketing channels, affiliate partnerships, and compliance-structured acquisition strategies.
“Canada’s iGaming market continues to evolve rapidly,” Segal added. “Our goal is to be fully prepared to support operators entering Alberta from day one.”
