GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Andrew Burke, Chief Executive Officer, Bluberi

This week, the GGB sits down with Andrew Burke, the CEO of Bluberi, a small Canadian slot company that is planning a big splash in the gaming industry similar to Burke’s last employer, AGS.

GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Andrew Burke, Chief Executive Officer, Bluberi

As a prime catalyst behind the growth of AGS as senior vice president of slot products, it wasn’t surprising to see Andrew Burke named chief executive officer at Quebec-based Bluberi in January 2020. Bluberi was bought by the Catalyst Capital Group private equity firm a couple of years ago and is eying a significant move as a game manufacturer and system provider. Burke’s expertise with slot product and Class II systems make him a natural for the Bluberi role, as they transition into Class III gaming as well. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at the Bluberi offices in Las Vegas in June.
