PlayStar, an online gambling operator, has officially named Peter Ekmark as its new CEO. Ekmark, a seasoned gaming professional, has been a member of the company's board since September and will now assume the role of CEO. His primary responsibility will be to expand the company's presence in the United States, building upon a successful first year of operations in the country. Ekmark takes over from Per Hellberg, who has decided to step down after leading PlayStar's strategic initiatives for two and a half years. Known for its community-focused approach, PlayStar launched in New Jersey last year and has achieved remarkable performance, attracting investment from the Glitnor Group.
