SPRIBE names Giorgi Tsutskiridze as Chief Commercial Officer
SPRIBE, the development house behind Aviator, the world’s number one crash game with more than ten million monthly active players, has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of Giorgi Tsutskiridze as Chief Commercial Officer.
Giorgi is an industry veteran having held senior roles at BetConstruct, VBet and Adjarabet and is also a serial entrepreneur. “This includes founding and leading HawX, an iGaming-focused CRM company that helps online casino brands retention and reactivation to the next level that boosts online casinos KPIs.”.
As SPRIBE’s Chief Commercial Officer, Giorgi has been tasked with working closely with the various departments across the organisation for budgeting, sales processes and marketing strategies including branding and advertising.
This includes leading and scaling the sales, business development and customer success teams, creating accountability within the company by deploying appropriate metrics and coordinating compensation and promotion within these metrics.
He is also responsible for defining sales objectives and driving the team to achieve targets, while also working with the marketing team to develop strategies that ultimately boost product and company awareness.
Giorgi joins SPRIBE at an exciting time for the organisation as it continues to grow its portfolio of Turbo Games off the back of the run-away success of Aviator, which is now live with more than 2000 casino brands in markets from Europe to America, Asia to Africa.
The company has also just rolled out its next-generation poker client, offering unrivalled engagement and player interaction.
David Natroshvili, CEO at SPRIBE, said: “Giorgi is an incredible talent, and we are thrilled to welcome him to SPRIBE as Chief Commercial Officer. He has the experience and skills required to take the organisation to the next level and will take a hands-on approach to share his expertise across our teams.
“SPRIBE is known for Aviator, but we have a growing portfolio of Turbo Games and other titles such as poker that offer a fun, social experience, and Giorgi will ensure that more operators and players are aware of our full portfolio of titles than ever before.
“That we have been able to secure such a talent shows that SPRIBE has reached the top tier of content providers and I look forward to working with Giorgi as the business goes from strength to strength.”
Giorgi Tsutskiridze, Chief Commercial Officer at SPRIBE, added: “SPRIBE is flying high right now and I am delighted to join such an innovative, cutting-edge company and to share my knowledge and experience with its incredible team.
“This is an important role for SPRIBE to fill and I am honoured to have been offered the position and to help drive growth and further establish the company as a pioneering content provider to online casino operators and sportsbooks.”
Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.
The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.
Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.
Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:
“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”
The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.
The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.
Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
