Entain PLC, a global sports betting and gaming group, has announced that Barry Gibson, the current Chair, will retire from his role and the Board by the end of September 2024, potentially earlier depending on the appointment of a permanent CEO. The search for a permanent CEO is ongoing and progressing well. The Board has been planning for this succession and has identified Stella David, who has been a non-executive director and Senior Independent Director since March 2021, to become the Chair upon Barry's retirement. Stella also served as the interim CEO of Entain in December 2023.
