Gaming Intelligence Hot 50

Naama Kushnir has been somewhat shoehorned into this category due to her last role as head of human resources. Her current job as chief operating officer transcends employee and customer care but her promotion is indicative of the growing importance of HR and its processes to successful gaming companies.

As director, VP and SVP of HR over the past 13 years, Kushnir probably knows the 888 business better than anyone. As 888 grows she will have a vital role in making sure the processes are in place that allow the company’s strategic vision to become reality.

What’s more, she will be the keeper of the cultural flame that burns so brightly in 888. There’s also the small matter of the last two 888 COOs being promoted to CEO. No pressure, Naama.
