The board of French gambling operator Française des Jeux (FDJ), has confirmed the appointment of Jean Christophe as new CEO of subsidiary sports betting technology and provisions provider LVS Ltd.

Christophe has been tasked with leading the implementation of LVS systems in more than 25,000 betting points in France.

Taking on the leadership role Christophe commented

LVS has proved the high performance of its key product: the Advanced Betting Platform (ABP), a solution designed on recent, yet proven, technologies. Since 2010, LVS has turned ABP from a pure online betting platform into a future-proofed omni-channel platform.

“In 2015, Santa Casa da Misericordia de Lisboa launched land-based operations with thousands of shops in Portugal with ABP, and LVS is currently extending its online solution to an omni-channel one in Israel for the Israeli Sports Betting Board. With such a track record I trust that LVS will succeed in this new project for FDJ, its parent company.”

Christophe will be based out of LVS headquarters in London, and will report directly to FDJ governance.
