Former chief Antonopoulos will remain vice-chairman of the Board of Directors

International lottery and games provider Intralot has announced the appointment of Antonis Kerastaris as Group CEO following the retirement of Constantinos Antonopoulos, effective today (Tuesday).

Antonopoulos will remain vice-chairman of the Board of Directors, the company said.

Kerastaris was formally CFO at Intralot, a position to which he was appointed in January this year.

Prior to joining the company, Kerastaris had a long and successful cooperation with the Intracom Group as CEO of Hellas Online. Before this, his experience included CFO responsibilities in large multi-national companies like Procter & Gamble, Hilton and Mercedes.

He holds a degree in Business Management from the Athens University of Economics.

Antonopoulos said: "After 22 years at the helm of Intralot since its founding I believe this is the time for a necessary management renewal. My colleagues and I are thankful for the support of the chairman of the Board and the shareholders in a most enjoyable journey towards the creation of a large multinational company deeply rooted in five continents.

"I will continue to support the Board and the management, towards the achievement of the company goals in the new era."

Socrates Kokkalis, Intralot chairman and founder paid tribute to the outgoing CEO, saying: "I would like to thank Mr. Antonopoulos for his commitment to the Intracom and Intralot Groups' vision over three decades and his contribution towards creating a pioneering technological group."
