He brings extensive industry and senior leadership experience to the role

Soft2Bet has announced Ryan Collinge as its new Executive Vice President of Group Business Development & Strategic Partnerships.  

Stepping into this role with 16 years of gaming industry experience, Collinge most recently served as Senior Vice President of Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) since early 2024. His previous experience also includes senior roles at Blueprint Gaming and Inspired Gaming Group – where he spent almost a decade across multiple positions.  

Now, he will assist in key decision-making across multiple departments at Soft2Bet as the supplier continues to field a period of geographical expansion through 2026.  

Commenting on his appointment via LinkedIn, Collinge stated: “What really stands out to me about Soft2Bet is how clearly the business understands what operators need, how much focus it puts on strong partnerships, and how ambitious the team is about growth across key markets. 
 
“My focus will be on group business development and strategic partnerships, working with the team to strengthen relationships with leading operators and entertainment brands and to identify the right opportunities for long-term growth. After many years in global retail and online gaming, I know how much successful partnerships depend on trust, clear thinking and delivery. I’m looking forward to bringing that approach to Soft2Bet and contributing to the company’s next stage of growth.” 

This latest appointment also follows an additional executive changeover earlier this year which saw Andrew Cochrane appointed as CCO in Q1 2026. More recently, the supplier also launched its QuickCasino subsidiary in the Danish market – alongside its new digital entertainment platform in Romania – during the second quarter. 

Good to know

Cochrane commented that Collinge will bring “commercial judgement, industry relationships and operational experience” to the team
