CASSELS TO RUN VC GAMING (Update)

Finance director will run company until Barlow replacement can be found

The shock resignation of Gaming VC chief executive officer Steve Barlow this week (see previous Online-Casinos.com/InfoPowa reports) has resulted in temporary management changes until a replacement can be recruited.

Barlow resigned amid growing indications of litigation in Massachusetts on M&A commissions with the American consultancy Fort Knox Consulting.

The finance director Gerard Cassels and chief marketing officer Paul Hambelton will jointly run the company until a new chief executive is found.

Adrian Smith, a non-executive director of Gaming VC, becomes chairman. Barlow remains on the board as a non-executive director.
