About Matthew Kelemen
Beginning my online gaming career in November 1998, I can be considered one of the foundational members of the online gaming industry. Over the last 24 years my career has taken me through three countries (Antigua, Sweden and Canada), overseeing hundreds of employees and managers while holding senior executive level positions in online gaming, operations, product development, marketing and start-up management in two of the largest supply companies; Pariplay and Boss Media AB. I have overseen, secured, advised, marketed and operated the day-to-day gaming operations for over 100 online casinos and numerous poker rooms. I spearheaded the creation of Boss Media’s poker network from vision to launch in 2003. In 2006 I spearheaded the creation of the StinkyFishPoker network. In 2010 I elevated my gaming career as CEO of Peak Interactive, leading legendary online casino gaming brands OmniCasino.com, FlyCasino.com and SunPoker.com into a new era of innovations and explosive company growth. In 2015, I sought to further expand my global industry footprint by becoming head of International Business Development for Vision Media\'s Betmotion.com whereby I spearheaded global growth strategies for the largest LATAM online gaming operator. After an amazing year with one of the best operators in South America, in 2016, I returned to the outstanding employees at Peak Interactive to chart a new course of growth until my departure in January 2022 when I joined Pariplay, the #1 iGaming aggregator, as Director of the U.S. and Canada. In September 2022, I was named the Head of iGaming at PlayUp whereby I lead all iGaming development, operations and strategic direction in New Jersey and North American marketplaces.
