LOS ANGELES, May 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Gamblit Gaming,
leading technology innovator for real-money gaming in mobile and
casino games today announced industry vet Darion Lowenstein has joined as Chief Marketing
Officer and current CMO David Chang is appointed Head of Industry
Relations. This comes as Gamblit Gaming transitions into an
operational company with two distinct marketing initiatives:
revenue generation and industry outreach.
Eric Meyerhofer, CEO of Gamblit
Gaming, said "David has been instrumental in setting the stage for
our upcoming launch. Darion's long history of hit games will help
realize our vision. I'm thrilled to welcome Darion to our
team – giving David the opportunity to focus his energy on industry
relations. This dual effort will put Gamblit Gaming in a
powerful leadership position to best capture the marketplace
opportunity before us."
As CMO, Darion will oversee the strategy, partnerships,
marketing, product management and monetization of casual games with
real-money wagering for casinos and mobile devices. He brings
nearly 20 years of video game experience to this role, having
produced and directed some of the biggest titles in the industry
across console, mobile and social, at companies like Activision,
Electronic Arts, Rockstar Games, and most recently as VP of Game
Development at Scopely. He's been an integral part of 10 #1
mobile games and 14 Top 5 console campaigns.
"I'm excited to join Gamblit Gaming at a time when mobile and
casino games are on the verge of a revolution," said Darion.
"I haven't seen an opportunity like this to innovate in a space
since mobile games started taking off, and I truly believe Gamblit
is leading the charge!"
As the new Head of Industry Relations, David Chang will continue to focus on liaising
with both the gaming and gambling sectors. The role also
demands David's continued attention in generating exposure and
heightening awareness of the company's products to both industries.
Before joining the company, he founded Gamiker, Inc., OnNet Europe
GmbH, and was IGN's Managing Director of International
Business.
"My move from CMO to Industry Relations aligns with Gamblit's
trajectory, progressing from formation and initial planning
stages to an operational entity," said David. "I'm eager to
work closely with Darion as he sets and executes marketing
strategy for the company."
