Parimatch Tech Restructures the Leadership Model: One CEO, Two Deputy CEOs
Roman Syrotian, who held the co-CEO position since 2021, will remain a Member of the Supervisory Board, while Chief Finance Officer and Chief Revenue Officer will become Deputy CEOs.
For the past two years, Parimatch Tech – a holding company developing software and solutions for the entertainment and betting industry – has been operating with Roman Syrotian and Maksym Liashko working side by side as the co-CEOs. Starting from April 1st, 2022, Roman Syrotian will be focusing 100% of his time on the Supervisory Board activities, while Maksym Liashko becomes the Parimatch Tech CEO.
Syrotian will be dealing with strategic aspects of the business, shareholder relations, and resources allocation. Liashko will continue to handle most of the operational tasks of the holding company. Anna Motruk, who held two roles before the management restructuring (Chief Finance Officer & Deputy CEO), will leave her CFO position to focus on the Deputy CEO role. Evgen Belousov, ex-Chief Revenue Officer at Parimatch Tech, has also been appointed as Deputy CEO.
“War impacts the fates of people and the fates of companies. The changes in the top management structure and move to the single CEO model will allow us to become even more flexible, and speed up the operational and decision-making processes. I am confident that Maksym and the team are ready to lead Parimatch Tech during these tough times! I will continue my work in the company in a non-operational role as a member of the Supervisory Board.”
Roman Syrotian, Member of the Supervisory Board at Parimatch Tech.
“In times of war, the structure and development procedures within the company had to be reviewed and adapted to the new reality. With Roman refocusing all his attention and skills on the Supervisory Board activities, I am certain that Parimatch Tech will withstand these difficult times and continue to be a successful global business. I would also like to congratulate Anna Motruk and Evgen Belousov on their appointments as Deputy CEOs. Their skills and knowledge shaped Parimatch Tech into what it is today – a successful international business – so together we will ensure that Parimatch Tech continues to grow and attract success.”
Maksym Liashko, CEO at Parimatch Tech.
“As Deputy CEO at Parimatch Tech, I will be overseeing the business development, business performance, tech, and data streams together with the heads of these departments. We will focus more attention on business diversification, which, I believe, is key to the company’s survival and growth.”
Evgen Belousov, Deputy CEO at Parimatch Tech.
“The war showed us that going beyond our formal responsibilities and being open-minded is key to ensuring the company’s success and stability. That’s why building cross-functional teams within the company will be an important element of our business going forward. Flexibility and resourcefulness are crucial elements of overcoming any challenges, and I am certain that the future holds a lot more victories.” – Anna Motruk, Deputy CEO at Parimatch Tech.

Pascal Gaming signs Ronaldinho for football-themed crash and slot titles
First release is Avinho R10, followed by June launch Fortune Ronaldinho as the studio lines up more titles ahead of the World Cup season.
Pascal Gaming has partnered with Brazilian football player Ronaldinho to launch a dedicated portfolio of games inspired by the athlete, the company said on 26 May, 2026.
The planned pipeline includes crash games, slots and additional titles set to roll out through the year. Pascal Gaming said the initiative is aimed at both Brazil and international markets, and will be supported by tournaments, promotional activity and special events tied to the Ronaldinho-branded portfolio.
The first game confirmed is Avinho R10, described as a crash-style title featuring Ronaldinho “above Brazil” in an aviation-themed experience. A second game, Fortune Ronaldinho, is scheduled for release in June and is positioned as a slot-inspired title.
“Ronaldinho is one of the most recognisable and loved football personalities in the world, so for us this collaboration is much more than a game launch. It is a global entertainment project that combines football culture, emotionally engaging gameplay and strong promotional activities ahead of the World Cup,” said Armen Mnaskanian, Head of Sales at SoftConstruct Gaming Content.
Pascal Gaming said it has been expanding its crash game portfolio during 2026 and investing in localised, character-driven content across Latin America, Africa and Asia. The company added that more Ronaldinho-themed titles and marketing campaigns will be revealed in the coming months.

PokerStars will bring PokerStars Open Namur back to Circus Casino Resort Namur from May 27 to June 7, with the festival returning one day after the operator’s May 26 announcement.
The stop follows a 2025 edition PokerStars said was record-breaking for Belgium, including 1,571 entries in the Main Event and what it called the largest live tournament prize pool in Belgian poker history.
This year’s schedule is headlined by the €1,100 PokerStars Open Main Event, which carries a €1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool.

“Last year’s turnout reinforced Namur’s place as one of the most exciting live poker stops in Europe,” said Cedric Billot, Associate Director of Live Events Operations at PokerStars. “What makes the event special isn’t just the size of the fields, it’s the atmosphere around the entire festival.”
PokerStars also positioned Namur as a scoring stop in the PokerStars Live League, which awards points across High, Medium and Low leaderboard tiers. PokerStars said players are competing for a share of €157,500 in PokerStars LIVE event credit, with the top 30 players in each tier qualifying for a €100,000 freeroll at the first European Poker Tour festival of 2027.
