US-based iGaming and sportsbook technology start-up Bet.Works has appointed Marc Brody, previously of SBTech and bwin.party, as senior vice-president of business development.

Brody will assume responsibility for identifying growth opportunities for the company in the US and also oversee the Bet.Works business development and account management teams.

“Bet.Works is by far the most dynamic technology provider in the industry and its enterprise-grade sports betting platform is precisely what operators in the US have been seeking,” Brody said.

“The company is solely focused on the US market, which will provide our partners with a unique advantage over the current competition.”

Wang said: “This appointment further demonstrates Bet.Works’ commitment to our partners by bringing in the best talent to support continued growth in the US.”
