IAGR appoints CEO of UAE gaming regulator as new board member

The International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) has officially announced the addition of four new trustees to its Board, including the CEO of the UAE General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority, Kevin Mullally.

An ex-VP of Government Relations and General Counsel for Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), Mullally was appointed last year as the inaugural CEO of the recently created UAE gaming regulator, the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA).

Aside from Mullally, the new IAGR board members include Anders Dorph from the Danish Gambling Authority, Peter Kesitilwe Emolemo from the Gambling Authority of Botswana, and Louis Rogacki from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement in North America.

IAGR President Ben Haden expressed that the “diverse expertise and leadership across different jurisdictions will bring fresh perspectives” to IAGR’s work, and further strengthen its global approach to gaming regulation.

“I look forward to working with Peter, Louis, Kevin, and Anders as we continue to foster innovation and drive forward effective, responsible regulation for the benefit of the global gaming community.”

The IAGR also acknowledged the contributions of outgoing Board members Trude Høgseth Felde and Mabutho Zwane, thanking them for their dedicated service. Additionally, Jason Lane will continue in his role as a Trustee for another term.

The IAGR serves as a global forum for gaming regulators to collaborate and share best practices, hosting annual conferences and workshops that focus on current issues in gaming regulation.

The organization has confirmed that its 2025 annual conference will be held in Toronto, Canada, from October 20th to 23rd with registration opening early next year.
