Kalamba Games today announced a significant evolution in its senior leadership team, appointing Maciej Kornecki as the company’s new Chief Operating Officer. Kornecki, who has served as Head of Studio for most of the past decade, steps into the role as Kalamba continues to scale its global footprint, expand its technology capabilities and accelerate delivery of next‑generation slot content.
COO and Co-founder, Alex Cohen, will remain with the company, transitioning into a role centred on strategic development and innovation. The change allows Alex to focus on new initiatives while still being involved in leadership of Kalamba’s day‑to‑day activities.
Kornecki’s appointment marks a natural progression for one of Kalamba’s longest‑serving leaders. As Head of Studio, he has overseen the development of Kalamba’s core game portfolio, driven the evolution of its proprietary technology stack and helped shape the company’s reputation for high‑quality, feature‑rich content.
Speaking about his new role Maciej commented: “I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built over the past decade and honoured to take on the role of COO. Kalamba is entering an exciting phase of growth, and I’m looking forward to strengthening our operations, supporting our teams and ensuring we continue to deliver standout products to partners worldwide.”
Alex Cohen, one of the industry’s most recognised product strategists, will remain a central figure in the company’s leadership structure.
Reflecting on the transition Alex said: “Maciej has been instrumental in Kalamba’s success pretty much from day one, and his appointment as COO is both well‑deserved and strategically important. I’m excited about what this next chapter enables for both the company and our teams.”
Kalamba CEO Steve Cutler commented: “Maciej’s track record speaks for itself. His operational expertise, product vision and commitment to excellence make him the ideal COO for Kalamba’s next stage of growth. Alex’s continued involvement expands our capability to look at new opportunities globally, and further develops a leadership team perfectly positioned to drive Kalamba forward in a rapidly evolving market.”
With this transition, Kalamba reinforces its long‑term commitment to innovation, operational excellence and sustainable global expansion in regulated markets. The company will continue to invest in new technologies, market opportunities and product strategies as it strengthens its position as one of the industry’s most forward‑thinking suppliers.
