Future Anthem has announced the appointment of Jean-Luc Ferrière as the data and AI firm’s new COO 

In his new post, Ferrière is expected to help guide the firm through its next growth phase and help its business. 

Ferrière boasts a wealth of industry experience, with more than 20 years in the sector and several C-suite positions to his name. 

His most recent position came at igaming-focused CRM company Fast Track, where Ferrière spent just under five years, arriving as chief commercial officer (CCO) in 2020, before adding managing director duties for the firm’s Americas region to his remit. 

He departed last month after a 10-month stint as COO. 

Various spells in commercial, operational and technical roles across the igaming and technology industries preceded his Fast Track tenure, with Ferrière’s longest spell at one employer coming with Microgaming, where he spent more than 12 years.

During his time with the supplier, Ferrière rose up the ranks, arriving as product delivery manager in 2008 before departing as CCO in 2020. 

Future Anthem’s announcement singled out Ferrière’s “unique blend of product, platform, and customer success expertise” as key reasons behind his addition. 

Reflecting on his new role, Ferrière noted: “Joining Future Anthem at this pivotal stage of company maturity is a unique and energising opportunity.  

“The team’s pace, ambition and product-led culture are incredibly impressive. I am looking forward to helping scale the business while delivering value to our customers around the world.”   

Leigh Nissim, Future Anthem CEO and co-founder, added: “The opportunity to attract, recruit and hire an experienced industry professional like Jean-Luc is a sign of Anthem’s progress and leadership for real-time, AI-driven personalisation.

“Over the next period we plan to accelerate our product, technology and platform development, with continued innovation and pace throughout.  

“This cross-functional role with expert leadership from Jean-Luc will facilitate our further growth, with increasing AI impact for our customers and their players.”
