Going forward, Johan's responsibilities will be handled within the framework of the existing organization. Johan's last day in LeoVegas management team is June 30, 2017.
"When I started at LeoVegas 2012 we had just launched and had no customers. Today we are market leaders!" comments Johan Styren.

After more than five fantastic years, I feel it's time to move on to new challenges."
