Austria – GLI names Alexander Haberl Regulatory Development Manager

By - 24 May 2018

Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) has appointed the former Managing Director of BMM Testlabs in Europe Alexander Haberl as its new Regulatory Development Manager.

The appointment follows the news that GLI is opening a second office in Austria. The newest office will complement its existing Graz laboratory to better serve the needs of the rapidly expanding European gaming market.

In his new role with GLI, Mr. Haberl will be meeting with regulators, monitoring regulatory developments, and updating various GLI departments about changes to regulated European gaming markets and their effect on general technical information and gaming products. He will be based out of the GLI Netherlands/GLI Vienna office.

“I am excited to welcome Alexander to our GLI team in Europe,” said Martin Britton, Managing Director of GLI Europe and Africa. “Alexander is an industry veteran with many years of experience in the areas of new product development, R&D, server-based technology, and technical compliance. I am confident that his unique professional skills and expertise will contribute significantly to delivering GLI’s world-class capabilities and customer service throughout the expanding European gaming market.”

Mr. Haberl began his gaming industry career as a project manager with Novomatic – Austrian Gaming Industries GmbH where he worked in the Multi-Station Products R&D Department to develop new server-client based technology, with an emphasis on electronic table games. During his tenure at Novomatic, Mr. Haberl contributed to the development of a variety of gaming platforms and products, including Novo Unity I, Novo Unity II, NovoLine Interactive, and the Cash Connection linked progressive system. He also managed Novomatic’s Technical Compliance Department, where he was responsible for all PC technology-based client-server system products. In addition, he helped establish modern R&D methodologies following ISTQB standards and was part of the team that initially licensed Novomatic’s VLT system in Italy.

Mr. Haberl then became the head of group projects at Greentube IES GmbH, Novomatic’s online gaming division. While at Greentube, Haberl managed various online projects with all other Novomatic partner companies, including the development of a new 360-degree server-based gaming platform merging online and land-based network gaming technologies.

Most recently, Mr. Haberl was the Managing Director of BMM Testlabs and Director of Business Development for BMM Europe GmbH in Austria.

As the third member of GLI Austria, the GLI Traiskirchen office further strengthens GLI’s already strong European presence in the areas of iGaming, land-based testing and lottery certification, auditing, and IT security. GLI Austria also operates offices in Graz, Austria and Krakow, Poland.

The new office is located in the town of Traiskirchen, approximately 20km (12.5 miles) south of Vienna and is headed by Technical Manager, Christian Schlinger.
