Datateam Publishing is proud to announce two new appointments that will take Casino International to new heights within the industry.

Stephanie Norbury, a well-respected journalist within the gaming industry, takes the newly created role of Managing Editor. Stephanie moves from InterGame magazine to take her new role, which also incorporates EuroSlot and Park World magazines. Stephanie says of her appointment: "I am very excited to take on this new challenge with Datateam. “The time has come for fresh ideas and energies to be devoted to Casino International, and I am looking forward to getting under way with Jon and Ricki."

Casino International also welcomes Jon Bruford into the Editor’s seat. As a career journalist, Jon’s background coupled with Stephanie’s industry experience make an exciting blend of complementary talents that will combine to create the industry’s must-read magazine.

Asked about his appointment Jon replied: “It’s an exciting time for the industry worldwide and it’s about time they had a magazine that reflects that. Casino International will, with our newly-installed dream team, provide the casino world with exactly that. I’m excited to be working with Stephanie and, with Ricki Chavez-Munoz also in a key role, the future is indeed bright."

Ricki, currently a contributor to Casino International and an industry expert, is taking the new role of Technical Editor, and he too is enthused by the changes to the title. As a respected gaming operator, casino marketing expert and a former Fleet Street and Reuters journalist, Ricki’s input will be vital to Casino International’s continued success alongside his new colleagues.

Ricki says: "With Jon a career journalist on board as an editor and Stephanie and myself adding our depth of knowledge and experience, Casino International is ensuring it remains number one for the industry for years to come."

Executive Publisher Paul Ryder is the man responsible for assembling the team. He added: “With more magazines than ever servicing the casino market, we are committed to publishing the best international trade publication for the gaming professional worldwide in terms of editorial content, circulation and design. This can now be achieved with the new editorial team who will use their knowledge of the industry and journalistic skills to take Casino International to another level.” (E-08.22.05)
