Jordan Levin transitions to role of Chairman

OpenBet has announced the appointment of Nikos Konstakis as Chief Executive Officer, effective at the end of the year. Jordan Levin will transition to the role of Chairman, where he will continue to play an active role in shaping OpenBet’s long-term strategy.

The appointment builds on the leadership role Nikos already plays across OpenBet, where he has been closely involved in driving the operational and commercial execution of the business and shaping its strategic priorities.

As CEO, he will lead OpenBet’s vision, strategy and day-to-day business, focusing on its growth, product and technology priorities while continuing to raise the bar in how OpenBet delivers for its global base of market-leading customers.

The leadership transition comes at a time of strong momentum for OpenBet. The company recently announced its planned acquisition of OmniLogic, further strengthening its position in the global lottery market and expanding its relationships with leading WLA operators.

OpenBet also delivered successfully for customers through the World Cup, one of the industry’s most important and demanding sporting events, with over 175 million bets processed and $3 billion wagered. In 2025, the company completed a management buyout backed by Ariel Emanuel, with participation from executives of OpenBet.

Jordan Levin commented: “Nikos has already been instrumental in driving the evolution of OpenBet and I have tremendous confidence in his leadership as CEO, having served in multiple and progressing senior executive positions at OpenBet. He knows our business, our customers and our technology inside out, and has played a central role in shaping our priorities and how we execute against them. Furthermore, Nikos has been a true confidante and partner in the business since coming on board over eight years ago.

“With OpenBet on a strong footing and significant opportunities ahead, I’m excited to continue supporting Nikos and the wider team as we drive the next phase of OpenBet’s growth.”

Nikos Konstakis commented: “I want to thank Jordan for his leadership and the foundation he has built at OpenBet. It’s a privilege to take on this role and lead the business at such an exciting time.

“We have an exceptional customer base, a great team and significant opportunities ahead of us. My focus will be on building on those strengths, bringing even greater pace and focus to the business and making sure we continue to set the standard in the markets we serve.

“I’m excited about what we can achieve from here and look forward to working with Jordan in his new role, and with our teams around the world, as we take OpenBet forward.”
