Pavilion Payments has appointed Angelo Palmisano as CPO, adding a veteran gaming technology executive to its leadership team as the company continues expanding its payments and platform offerings.
Palmisano brings more than 35 years of experience across casino technology, gaming systems, electronic gaming machines, payments and loyalty platforms. He founded gaming technology company Paltronics and grew it into a global business with operations in North America, Australia, South Africa and Asia before Aristocrat Technologies acquired its North American division in 2014.
Following the acquisition, Palmisano joined Aristocrat as Senior Vice President of Global Strategy and Innovation, where he helped develop the company’s systems portfolio into a multi-property enterprise platform. Prior to joining Pavilion, he also served as Chief Strategy Officer at Win Systems.
Diallo Gordon, CEO of Pavilion Payments, said: “Angelo has been at the forefront of gaming technology innovation for many years, and we're excited to have him join Pavilion. He brings a unique combination of entrepreneurial vision, product expertise and deep industry knowledge.”
Palmisano said Pavilion has an opportunity to build on its existing platform as the gaming sector undergoes technological change.
He added: “Pavilion has built a strong product foundation and has a real opportunity to capitalize on the technology and business shifts happening across our industry.
“I’m looking forward to working with the team to continue building solutions that help our customers succeed and support Pavilion’s long-term growth.”
In his new role, Palmisano will lead product development, design and innovation across Pavilion’s portfolio as the company continues expanding its payments infrastructure and platform integrations for casino operators.
Palmisano previously founded casino systems company Paltronics, which Aristocrat acquired in North America in 2014.
