Booming Games has promoted Dan Paleu to Chief Operating Officer and Ramona Petrina to Chief of Staff with immediate effect.

Press release.- Booming Games has today expanded its C-suite, appointing a new chief operating officer and creating a new chief of staff role. The appointments reflect Booming Games’ commitment to attracting and nurturing top talent, as the business plans ambitious growth in the coming years and ramps up its global presence.

Dan Paleu, who initially joined the business as director of technical operations, has been promoted to chief operating officer with immediate effect. Prior to joining Booming Games, Dan spent 16 years at IGT PlayDigital, previously iSoftBet, where he held various roles, most recently serving as head of games. In this position, Dan developed the firm’s overall games strategy and oversaw the production process for new games, from concept through to launch. He is regarded as a visionary with a strong track record in the industry.

With extensive industry experience, Dan is well-positioned to strengthen Booming Games’ proposition. His focus will be on driving operational excellence across game delivery, technology and commercial operations, ensuring regulatory compliance in all markets. He will also be supporting continued expansion into new regulated markets, with entries into Switzerland, Bulgaria, and the Czech Republic planned for 2026.

Alongside this, Ramona Petrina has been appointed chief of staff, a newly created position, effective immediately. Ramona joined Booming Games in November 2022 as director of HR and now has over 15 years of industry experience. Her promotion comes at a time when the business has clear plans to bolster its ranks and recruit top talent to improve customer experience.

In her new role, Ramona will act as a strategic partner, supporting executive planning and decision-making. Her immediate focus will be to devise a clear set of objectives, aligned with the overall leadership strategy, and support with the delivery of key growth initiatives. Alongside this, Ramona will continue to shape the company’s people strategy, ensuring the organisation is well-structured and prepared for its next phase of growth.

Dan and Ramona will both be in attendance at ICE Barcelona later this month, along with a number of C-suite colleagues, to showcase Booming Games’ latest games and discuss plans for the year ahead.

Max Niehusen, founder of Booming Games, said: “We are pleased to announce these two promotions at a key moment in our growth journey. With extensive experience in their fields, Dan and Ramona have already made a significant contribution to the business, providing invaluable expertise. Their promotions reflect our longstanding commitment to retain and nurture top talent, in order to better serve our rapidly expanding customer base.”

Dan Paleu, chief operating officer at Booming Games, said: “After joining Booming Games I quickly understood why the business has an unrivalled reputation in the industry for innovation. The business has set out ambitious growth plans and I am proud to be taking up the position of Chief Operating Officer to help deliver these. I look forward to continuing working closely with Max in the role, providing a market leading experience for our customers and players.

Ramona Petrina, chief of staff at Booming Games, said: “Booming Games has built a powerful foundation, from its product vision and people to its ambition and execution. The scale we’ve achieved is the result of clear direction and strong leadership, and I’m excited to help shape the next phase of the company’s growth as we continue to expand and evolve.
