Tekkorp Capital, a global betting and gaming investment boutique, has hired Conor O’Donovan to lead its African business in response to the rapidly growing opportunities across the continent.
"With a decade of expertise in the African market as a prominent equity investor and several years of hands-on experience as CEO of multi-territory African betting brands, Conor's leadership will be crucial as we and our partners navigate and invest in this rapidly developing region," said the company.
O'Donovan’s strategic focus will be on identifying investment opportunities, while assembling an advisory and management team of leading African industry luminaries to steer investment and operational oversight.
"Investee companies will benefit from Tekkorp and its capital partners’ investment along with the decades of experience built up with some of the most successful businesses in the sector.
"For operators requiring more than access to capital, Tekkorp will provide comprehensive operational, technical and strategic support, including product solutions, media partnerships, payments and legal expertise, ensuring the full resources needed to succeed."
