AGS has designated seasoned gaming sector attorney, Robert Blair, as their latest Associate General Counsel. Blair comes to AGS from Aruze Gaming, where he occupied a comparable position and supervised a time of substantial organizational reformation, including the divestiture of Aruze’s electronic table game holdings to Interblock and the forthcoming sale of its slot business to Play Synergy.
Blair’s vast background, encompassing over twenty years, includes proficiency in intellectual property law, portfolio agreements, legal proceedings, and strategic financial plan enhancement. He will assume a vital part in defending AGS’s legal concerns and intellectual property as the enterprise seeks fresh expansion prospects.
Rob Ziems, AGS’s Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, conveyed his assurance in Blair’s selection, emphasizing his invaluable knowledge in corporate law and patents. Ziems trusts Blair will be essential in shielding and furthering AGS’s operations and brand recognition.
As Associate General Counsel, Blair will play a crucial role in ensuring the company maintains legal compliance, collaborating closely with other executives to uphold ethical practices while navigating a multifaceted legal and regulatory environment.
Blair joins AGS at a pivotal juncture as the company embarks on significant international expansion. Their latest financial report underscored their presence in 29 US states, 4 Canadian provinces, and even an initial foray into a new country. They are clearly thriving, particularly in attracting high-value clients with substantial resources.
To sustain this momentum, they have devised a strategic plan. They will capitalize on their existing global infrastructure to strategically broaden their EGM installations internationally throughout the remainder of 2023.
