Leading gambling-harm prevention consultancy continuing to upscale as safer gambling moves from social responsibility to board-level commercial risk.
[Manchester, 5th May 2026] EPIC Global Solutions has today announced the appointment of Chetan Pandya as Managing Director, marking a significant step in the company’s next phase of international growth.
Pandya joins from DAZN, where he held senior leadership roles within a global, high-growth environment. His appointment reflects EPIC’s ambition to scale its operations and deepen its role as a strategic partner to organisations operating in high-risk sectors.
As regulatory scrutiny intensifies and global operators expand into new markets, safer gambling and player protection have become central to long-term performance, reputation, and compliance. EPIC is increasingly positioned at the intersection of these challenges, working with leading organisations across sport, gambling, and education to reduce harm and deliver measurable impact.
Chetan Pandya, Managing Director at EPIC Global Solutions, said: “EPIC operates in a space that is becoming increasingly critical to the future of global sport and gambling. The opportunity to help shape how organisations approach prevention, responsibility, and long-term sustainability at scale is incredibly compelling. I’m excited to be joining at such a pivotal moment in the company’s journey.”
Paul Buck, CEO of EPIC Global Solutions, added: “This is a significant moment for EPIC. Chetan brings the experience, leadership, and global perspective we need as we continue to grow and evolve. Our ambition is clear – to be the trusted partner to the world’s leading organisations in player protection, and this appointment strengthens our ability to deliver on that.”
The appointment comes as EPIC continues to expand its presence in North America and internationally, alongside the development of scalable and digitally-enabled solutions to support organisations across multiple markets.
Built on lived experience and evidence-led delivery, EPIC’s approach focuses on protecting people, enhancing reputations, and strengthening performance for its partners.
