Lifetime Achievement Interview: Richard Flint
As we
approach the fourth annual VIXIO GamblingCompliance Global
Regulatory Awards, on October 29th 2020. We sat down with the
winner of the Compliance Lifetime Special Achievement Award, the
former Sky Bet CEO and well-known industry spokesperson Richard
Flint.
During his nearly 20 tenure with Sky Betting & Gaming Richard
oversaw remarkable transformation and unprecedented growth, turning
them into an online gambling powerhouse, while at the same time
confronting head-on some of the industry’s most pressing
responsible gambling challenges.
His tenure saw massive growth at the sports-betting company, which
he left shortly after it was acquired by The Stars Group, now part
of Flutter, where Richard serves on the board as a non-executive
director.
In this special episode, VIXIO GamblingCompliance podcast host and
Editor Joe Ewens interviewed Richard Flint ahead of the Global
Regulatory Awards, to get his insight on a host of topics, most
pressing being the crisis of reputation facing the UK gambling
industry, and beyond.
