Jogo Global Welcomes Simon Collins and Patrick Southon to Leadership Roles

iGaming platform provider and game content developer, Jogo Global, has announced the addition of Simon Collins as the company’s Executive Chairman and Patrick Southon as a Non-Executive Director.

Both Collins and Southon bring an unmatched entrepreneurial acumen in the online gaming sector. Their joint venture, Cashcade, gave rise to the leading UK online bingo brand, Foxy Bingo, and saw a successful sale for £96m in 2009.

Following this, the dynamic duo founded Gaming Realms, the company behind the successful mobile-centric content, Slingo, which ingeniously merges the gaming formats of slots and bingo.

Jogo Global provides a plethora of high-performing, bespoke fast games, encompassing a variety of genres from Crash content to Mines. Recently, Jogo has observed notable growth in the US land-based sector, with a heightened demand for the company’s technology and service solutions, reflecting its steady expansion in the iGaming industry.

David Marcus, CEO of Jogo Global said, “We’ve experienced exponential growth over the past 12 months. To have the support and insight of such legendary industry figures as Simon and Patrick, represents an outstanding opportunity for Jogo to build on this success and look to a yet brighter future.”

Simon Collins, Executive Chairman of Jogo Global commented, “Jogo Global is developing a track record for the highly effective development and delivery of niche gaming products. My time as Non-Executive Chairman has been very fruitful, and I’m thrilled to now become Executive Chairman at the beginning of this promising new chapter.”

Patrick Southon, Non-Executive Director for Jogo Global added, “I’m very excited to be working with David, Tiago, Simon and the team at this key moment in the company’s development. Operators worldwide are seeing the benefits of the Jogo Global offering and it’s a great time to join this talented and fast-growing team.”
