Pawlak will lead the company’s business development, operations and sales efforts in Latin American gaming markets.

“We knew we wanted a veteran executive who could champion our efforts in Latin America after gaining a successful business in Mexico through the Cadillac Jack acquisition,” said CEO David Lopez. “The dynamic regulatory and customer landscape in Latin America is extremely important to our business, and Drew’s broad industry knowledge and long-term experience in gaming regulation will help position AGS for continued growth in the region.”

Pawlak previously worked for BMM Test Labs for nearly 12 years, most recently serving as senior vice president of business development.

He said: “The strong momentum and product diversity that AGS is building with its recent strategic acquisitions was a key driver in my decision to join the company.”
