Patrick Svensk, Chairman of the Board of Betsson AB (publ), has informed the Nomination Committee that he is resigning from Betsson's Board of Directors and the assignment as Chairman with immediate effect. The Board has appointed Johan Lundberg, currently a member of Betsson's Board, as the new Chairman. Patrick Svensk has been a member of Betsson's Board of Directors since 2005, and Chairman of the Board since 2017. The decision to resign from Betsson's Board of Directors is based on the fact that the company's major shareholders have stated that they no longer have full confidence in Patrick Svensk as Chairman of the Board. The lack of full trust is due to how the dismissal of the CEO was handled, which the company communicated on September 17, 2021. Johan Lundberg, who has been appointed new Chairman by the Board, has been a member of Betsson's Board since 2018. Johan Lundberg is the founder of NFT Ventures and a Board Member of Loomis, Svolder and Ölands Bank.
