OCR Labs Global, a world leader in digital ID verification, has appointed Fiona Davies as Head of Gaming to lead their strategy of focusing on improving the verification experience and fraud prevention in this vertical. Davies joins with over 15 years of experience across startups through leading commercial teams in large corporations and over seven years of extensive knowledge of the Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Identity Verification (IDV) landscape.

OCR Labs Global solves major challenges, including identity fraud and regulatory compliance, using its proprietary technology. With unrivaled identity document coverage and industry leading biometric technology there is a huge opportunity to improve onboarding in the gambling industry.

During her time at Acuris Risk Intelligence, Davies was responsible for the Gambling and Sales divisions, where she gained extensive knowledge of the landscape surrounding regulated markets and insights into making these processes more efficient. Before this role, she spent 10 years as Commercial Director for global B2B events, driving launch events at the EMAP in South America and supporting high-growth tech companies such as Google and Intel to win commercial traction in emerging markets.

Fiona Davies, newly appointed Head of Gaming for OCR Labs Global, comments: “My first introduction to Gambling was at ICE, where I was instantly fascinated by this high-growth vertical and its complexity from a regulatory standpoint. I am passionate about working with clients and offering them real solutions that will add value across the board.

Davies continued, “I am excited to build out the Gambling division at OCR Labs Global offering operators products that underpin this strict regulatory environment whilst not impinging on user experience. With such a stand-out product offering, joining them was an easy decision to make. I plan to be a real evangelist and work with operators, platforms and partners to introduce improvements that make a real difference to the verification experience, the bottom line and fraud prevention.”

“With a 100 percent automated product that helps onboard players faster and at the same time stops fraud, I know it is the right time to get passionate about making real improvements in the Gambling industry.”

Russ Cohn, General Manager International for OCR Labs Global, added, “OCR Labs Global is committed to bringing our technology to Gambling operators and their users worldwide. We are a real force multiplier for the industry, with our fully automated and user friendly and reliable ID verification process dramatically speeding up user onboarding. We welcome Fiona’s industry experience and ability to leverage our solution and elevate our efforts in Gambling. We are confident that her expertise will support global operators to take advantage of this excellent growth opportunity.”

OCR Labs Global is already supporting clients across many industries, including governments, crypto and a variety of platform-based businesses, such as SaaS providers. Customers include Cognito, HSBC, Reed, Coinmetro and many other customers and partners.

For a second consecutive year, Amusnet united employees, families, friends and sports enthusiasts around a meaningful cause through the Amusnet Charity Run. It is a corporate initiative combining active lifestyles, teamwork and social impact. The event was initiated by Konstantin Ivanov, Director, Engineering Casino at Amusnet, and has quickly become a growing tradition within the company.

This year’s edition attracted nearly 200 participants, including representatives from almost every division across the organisation, with especially strong involvement from the technical, product, compliance and production teams. Employees took part alongside family members and friends, turning the event into a celebration of community spirit and shared values.

The initiative aims to support athletes from the National Paralympic Organisation in their preparation for upcoming national and international competitions. For every kilometre completed, Amusnet donated funds to the Organisation in support of the athletes and their future participation in competitions, reflecting the idea that sport unites people, builds resilience and drives positive change.

Participants collectively covered an impressive 960 kilometres, and the atmosphere throughout the event reflected strong engagement and enthusiasm across all levels of the company, from employees and specialists to division leads and management representatives. Many colleagues joined the initiative for a second consecutive year, further reinforcing the event’s importance within the company culture.

“This event is a sporting challenge for us, but also reflects the spirit of solidarity and responsibility shared across the company. Seeing so many colleagues and their families personally support this cause proves that when people unite around a meaningful mission, they can create real impact,” said Konstantin Ivanov, Director, Engineering Casino at Amusnet and initiator of the Charity Run.

Ilia Lalov, Chairman of the National Paralympic Federation, said: “Support like this is invaluable for our athletes. Beyond the financial contribution, initiatives such as the Amusnet Charity Run send a strong message of respect, inclusion, and encouragement to the entire Paralympic community. We are grateful to everyone who stood behind this cause.”
