Industry non-profit organization Global Gaming Women (GGW) has announced Light & Wonder’s CEO of Gaming Siobhan Lane as its new President and Board Chair – part of a new-look leadership team that will take the reins for three years from 1 January 2026. Longtime industry executive Brandi Ellis and Vice President, People Operations at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, Adriana Kasunic, have been named as Vice Presidents.
“Throughout her many years of service to the organization, Siobhan’s ardent focus on education has significantly expanded GGW’s offerings and reach, which we will see continued in her leadership as president,” said Lauren Bates, outgoing GGW President and current Light & Wonder Vice President of Sales.
“I want to extend my deepest gratitude to GGW’s incredible members, sponsors, board members and volunteers for your dedicated commitment to the organization over my term of service, during which we achieved more than 3,000 new members, launched 10 new programs and held 17 live education events, which expanded into two new countries.”
GGW said it has additionally authorized the appointment of Seminole Casino Hotel Immokalee Vice President of Finance Julie Woodruff to Board Secretary – a position vacated by Kasunic in her transition to 2nd Vice President. ‘
“GGW’s mission to support, inspire and influence the development of women in the gaming industry began thanks to its founders’ vision and commitment, which I am excited to champion in my role as President and Chair of the Board of Directors,” said Lane. “Outgoing GGW President Lauren Bates brought the organization to new heights, and I extend my immense appreciation to her for positioning the organization for continued success.”
