INSPIRE Entertainment Resort has announced the appointment of Steven Wolstenholme as its new Chief Casino Officer (CCO).
In a Tuesday release, the South Korean integrated resort operator noted that Wolstenholme ‘will oversee the establishment of INSPIRE’s enterprise-wide casino strategies and the advancement of operational processes, while formulating and executing mid-to long-term growth plans for the INSPIRE Casino’.
In a social media post on Monday, the gaming industry veteran indicated he would be placing his consultancy Wolsten & Associates ‘into hibernation’ in order to focus on his role with INSPIRE.
Wolstenholme draws from decades of experience in gaming, much of it based in Asia, serving as the Chief Operating Officer of Galaxy Entertainment Group from 2008 to 2010 and later as the President and Managing Director of Okada Manila.
More recently, Wolstenholme served as President and CEO of Hoiana Resort & Golf before focusing on his consultancy work under Wolsten & Associates.
Speaking of the new role, Wolstenholme noted that INSPIRE is “setting a new standard for entertainment resorts in Asia through its successful opening and rapid operational stabilization”.
INSPIRE CEO Gyubum Ko noted “With the appointment of our new CCO, INSPIRE will further accelerate its growth as a world-class integrated resort delivering the ultimate ‘Playcation’ experience”.
