When Kristian Nylén decided to step down from sports betting provider Kambi, the company conducted an exhaustive search for his successor and came up with former Sportradar CEO Werner Becher. With senior executive experience within the sports betting industry, both in B2B and B2C companies, Becher is charged with leading Kambi into its next phase of growth. Becher played a pivotal role in the successful Nasdaq IPO of Sportradar in September 2021. He talks about how Kambi brings value to its clients and why Kambi can speed the success of any online sports betting operator. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at the ICE conference and tradeshow in Barcelona in January.
