BetConstruct AI has appointed Lena Yasir as its new CEO, bringing more than 20 years of B2B iGaming experience spanning commercial strategy, international expansion and team development across regulated and emerging markets.

Her career includes senior roles at Ongame Network, Evolution Gaming and Play'n Go, where she served as Head of Commercial. Most recently, she was CCO at Arrise powering Pragmatic Play, a position she held from May 2023.
