The appointment follows a period of regulatory scrutiny around BC Game’s past Curaçao licensing position and wider market activity 

BC Game has appointed Kar Kheng Giam as CEO, handing leadership of the crypto gambling operator to an executive with experience across gaming, technology and consumer sectors.

Giam, also known as KK, joins BC Game after serving as VP International at Coyote Bioscience, where he led global expansion initiatives. 

BC Game said his career has also included co-founding mobile gaming businesses Topgame and Tinymobi, as well as holding senior executive and CEO roles at multiple organizations and regional leadership positions at Nabisco in Asia.

In the role, Giam will oversee BC Game’s strategic direction, operational leadership and financial performance. The operator said his priorities will include expanding the platform globally and strengthening its position in regulated markets. 

BC Game said it currently holds licenses in jurisdictions including Anjouan, Nigeria, Kenya, Mexico and Tanzania.

BC Game CEO, Kar Kheng Giam, said: “My focus will be on strengthening our presence in regulated markets, enhancing the platform experience and continuing to build trust with our users.”

The appointment also comes against a more complicated backdrop for the operator. In December 2024, BC Game said it had withdrawn its Curaçao license, stating that the move would not affect its broader operations in other jurisdictions. 

Separate reporting in late 2024 said the operator had come under scrutiny in connection with legal disputes, bankruptcy proceedings involving its Curaçao entity and allegations around unlicensed activity in parts of Europe, all of which BC Game has disputed in public statements.

The change in leadership therefore places Giam at the center of BC Game’s next phase as the operator attempts to widen its regulated footprint while navigating continued attention on compliance, licensing and market access.

In October 2025, BC Game renewed its principal partnership with Leicester City for the 2025/26 season, extending a sponsorship centered on international fan engagement outside the UK, where BC Game’s services remain unavailable. 

Good to know

BC Game said Giam has worked across Asia-Pacific, the US and Europe over more than three decades
