Others could follow us, says Virgin Games chief executive
GUERNSEY has become the central hub for all Virgin Games online gaming services.
The company moved to Guernsey last year and took on four people, according to Virgin Games chief executive Simon Burridge (pictured).
'We started as a marketing operation, which meant we had to outsource all operations except marketing,' he said.
That has now changed and the company has centralised its casino, poker and bingo services in the island.
Making all the operations in-house had always been the intention when moving to Guernsey, according to Mr Burridge.
He said he was pleased with how the company was operating here.
'It is a lovely place. It has fantastic infrastructure and we wanted to employ people with financial experience. It is also close to the UK and we are regulated nearby in Alderney.'
He said he could definitely see more online companies moving to the island.
