Kate Chambers who for some ten years was Managing Director of Clarion Gaming has been moved into what seems a more diluted role in charge of just the land based gambling sector for the event organiser.<\/p>\nKate Chambers who for some ten years was Managing Director of Clarion Gaming has been moved into what seems a more diluted role in charge of just the land based gambling sector for the event organiser.<\/p>\n
In an announcement late last week Chambers and Clarion Gaming announced what they call a more \u201csharp focus\u201d towards the land based industry only, an industry that has been hugely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
In a statement from Kate Chambers on the move she said: \u00a0\u201cThe role will have a sharp focus on land-based gambling and, in particular, I will be looking at how the team at Clarion can best serve our loyal and dedicated customers in a sector that has taken the brunt of the fall-out from Covid-19.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will involve cementing the many key partnerships that we have established, forming new collaborative relationships and exploring the creation of new brands and properties to assist the land-based segment of Clarion\u2019s international stakeholder community.<\/p>\n
\u201cClearly, this represents a change of focus for me personally, but one that provides specific and significant challenges that I am looking forward to, not least as the industry prepares for the return of ICE London in June 2021.\u201d<\/p>\n
However many industry insiders believe that this move is at best sideways and more a downgrade on her previous role that headed up the entire gaming section.<\/p>\n
No details were given by Clarion Gaming on who would replace Chambers as Managing Director of Clarion Gaming or if the role with be filled at all or a dedicated person would be installed as head of Online Gambling also.<\/p>\n
