Avanti Studios appoint Steven Tabone as Commercial Director

Former Head of Region at Evolution joins next-generation live casino supplier with a view to establishing the company as a true market leader

Avanti, the disruptive live casino supplier known for its innovative mix of motion capture technology and real-time cloud-based streaming, has announced that it has appointed Steven Tabone as Commercial Director.

Having previously held the role of Head of Region at Evolution, Steven was part of a successful management team that led commercial strategy, sales and account management functions while working closely with some of the industry’s best-known online gaming operators.

During his two-year spell in the position, Steven had a major hand in driving the company’s revenue growth, strengthening strategic partnerships and identifying new business opportunities – all of which are aspects that will be key to his responsibilities as Avanti’s Commercial Director.

With a remit to further establish the business’s commercial function and position Avanti as a leading next-generation Live Casino supplier, Steven’s primary objectives will be to build lasting partnerships with operators and aggregators and to leverage his experience and industry network to develop a scalable go-to-market strategy focused on global expansion and sustainable growth.

While it may sound like a lot to ask from a new appointment, Steven couldn’t be joining Avanti at a more exciting time, with the company recently ramping up its operations in Spain and Brazil via high-profile partnerships with Entain and Bet365. With momentum and industry interest firmly on his side, he’ll have all the support that he needs to establish his strategic vision moving forward. 

Steven Tabone, Commercial Director at Avanti, said: “I firmly believe Avanti is the most exciting thing to have happened to the iGaming industry for a very long time, so I’m obviously delighted to be joining as Commercial Director during what is undoubtedly a pivotal period for the company.

“What drew me to Avanti is having the chance to build something genuinely different. The team has a clear vision that will disrupt the industry with its innovation and quality, and as an operator, you can either jump on the train with us or be left standing at the station. Being able to shape that journey from the very beginning is a huge opportunity, and one that I’m really looking forward to.”
