BetMakers Technology Group Ltd ( ASX:BET ) (“ BetMakers ” or the “ Company ”) advises that Anthony Pullin has given notice of his resignation as Chief Financial Officer.

BetMakers CEO Jake Henson said, “We thank Anthony for his significant contribution to BetMakers. Over the past 5 years Anthony has been a valued senior team member, adding financial rigour to our business. He leaves BetMakers in a strong position, with the foundations now in place for the Company to achieve profitability. We wish Anthony all the very best for his future endeavors where I have no doubt he will be an extremely highly valued team-member.”
