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.”

ICONIC21 launches Private Edition Blackjack with a single-player 7-seat live table
ICONIC21 has launched Private Edition Blackjack, a live table game built around a single-player format. The company said the table is reserved entirely for one player and supports up to seven hands played simultaneously.
Private Edition Blackjack uses a seven-seat table model with a high minimum bet requirement, positioning it at VIP and high-value segments. ICONIC21 said players can request a dealer change, request a shoe change, or choose to keep their current dealer.
The product also adds ICONIC21’s integrated LED Studio technology. According to the company, a built-in LED screen enables operators to change background visuals to support campaigns, partnerships, events, or player segmentation.
Edvardas Sadovskis, Chief Product Officer at ICONIC21, said: “Private Edition Blackjack brings a much stronger sense of ownership to the live blackjack experience. Players are not simply joining a seat – they take full control of the table, playing up to seven hands and shaping the session through dealer and shoe preferences.
For VIP and high-value players, engagement is everything. This format ensures the dealer’s full attention is dedicated to a single player, creating a more personal and immersive experience. With extended decision time and no need to accommodate others at the table, players can control the pace of the game and play entirely on their own terms.”
