Michael Tadross, Christos Zoulianitis and Martyna Scieszka set to lead respective units for award-winning provider

Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has revamped its corporate strategy with three internal promotions that align with the company’s ambitious business plans.

Michael Tadross, who has been with Playson for over six years, has been promoted to Director of Account Management. His new role will see him take even greater strategic leadership of the Account Management department and influence its further advancement.

Christos Zoulianitis has been promoted to Director of Market Strategy. His responsibilities now include developing and executing the company’s overall business strategy, introducing a new commercial approach that will secure market growth and brand exposure to all key focus markets.

Having started as an Account Manager in 2018, this is Zoulianitis’ third internal promotion at Playson, previously working under Head of Partnerships, showcasing his ability to communicate the organisation’s strategic vision and objectives by coordinating and evaluating strategic plans and initiatives.

Martyna Scieszka is now Head of Compliance following a strong performance since joining Playson just 14 months ago, providing the confidence for the studio she is ready to embrace additional responsibilities in a more senior role. Scieszka will spearhead Playson’s Compliance unit, fostering a culture of excellence as the company looks to extend its reach across regulated markets worldwide.

The latest promotions demonstrate the superior talent of Playson’s wider team and the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering career progression for its people, following the announcement of Vsevolod Lapin’s move to Deputy CEO last month.

Michael Tadross, Director of Account Management at Playson, said: “I am really excited to get started in my new role here at Playson.

“We have a unified team of experienced Account Managers and, as we continue to pursue our goal of expansion within regulated markets, I’m thrilled to further lead the team in facilitating Playson’s continued growth through striving to provide a first-class experience to our valued business partners.”

Christos Zoulianitis Director of Market Strategy at Playson, said: “For one of the long-serving members of the Playson team, I am delighted to be recognised with my promotion to Director of Market Strategy.

“Throughout my tenure we have experienced some good times and other more challenging ones, but with a clear vision in place coinciding with our ambitious growth plans, I am confident we can reach our goals.”

Martyna Scieszka, Head of Compliance at Playson, said: “Having worked in the iGaming industry for over a decade now, it’s great to now use my experience to enhance the compliance team at Playson.

“Our enhanced growth strategy is rapidly taking shape and I hope we can continue to secure some exciting licences.”

Alex Ivshin, CEO at Playson, said: “It brings us great pleasure make promotions from within the company. Michael, Christos and Martyna thoroughly deserve their new positions within Playson’s senior team.

“All three have demonstrated all the characteristics that we look for in our senior team as we continue to build and reach our goals. It’s great to know we have their experience and leadership.”

ZingBrain AI Drives Hondubet Growth with Real-Time Personalisation

ZingBrain AI is reshaping the iGaming landscape by delivering measurable performance gains for Hondubet through advanced real-time personalization technology.

By replacing its manually curated casino lobby with a fully automated, API-driven solution, Hondubet has unlocked a new level of player engagement and operational efficiency. The AI-powered system dynamically adapts content to individual player behaviors, ensuring that each user encounters games tailored to their unique preferences.

Significant Performance Gains Across Player Segments

Data from a controlled A/B test comparing the legacy manual lobby with the new personalized system highlights substantial improvements:

A 25% increase in Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) and turnover among newly registered players
A 10% rise in total bets placed by returning users
A 25% boost in the number of unique games explored across the player base

These results underscore the effectiveness of AI-driven personalization in enhancing both user engagement and revenue generation.

From Manual Management to Intelligent Automation

Previously, Hondubet relied heavily on manual processes to manage its casino lobby, requiring constant updates and resource-intensive oversight. According to Julian Pareja Garcia of Hondubet, the shift to ZingBrain AI has been transformative.

The automated system continuously learns from player interactions, refining game recommendations and lobby sections without human intervention. This allows the operator’s team to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine maintenance.

Smarter Player Experiences Through AI Innovation

Oleg Smolerov emphasized the collaborative approach between the two companies, highlighting a shared commitment to innovation and product excellence.

Rather than static content placement, the AI engine ensures that every element of the lobby evolves in response to real-time data. This creates a more intuitive and engaging user experience, where players are presented with content that feels both relevant and natural.

Aligning Commercial Goals with User Experience

Beyond engagement metrics, the integration also supports Hondubet’s commercial strategy. Through ZingBrain AI’s Game Promotion tool, priority titles can be strategically surfaced within personalized sections.

Crucially, the system evaluates performance continuously. Games that fail to resonate with players are automatically deprioritized and replaced with more relevant options. This ensures a balance between promotional objectives and player satisfaction, maximizing both retention and monetization.

A New Standard for iGaming Personalisation

The success of this integration signals a broader shift within the iGaming industry toward intelligent automation and data-driven experiences. By leveraging AI to personalize every touchpoint, operators like Hondubet are setting new benchmarks for engagement, efficiency, and revenue growth.

As competition intensifies, solutions like ZingBrain AI are poised to become essential tools for operators seeking to deliver meaningful, high-performing user experiences at scale.
