Director and Head of Business Development. The position was newly created
as part of Tipp24's international alignment. Paul Witten will be based in
London.
Witten has many years of experience with leading, internationally operating
companies in the online sector. From 2009 to 2012, he was Director of
E-Commerce and Mobile at Ladbrokes PLC after previously serving as Global
Marketing Director at Betfair for four years. He was responsible for
Business Development at Ebay in London for four years. Prior to this, he

About Tipp24 SE: Tipp24 SE was founded in September 1999 and holds equity
interests in a number of companies in Spain, Italy and the UK, which enable
participation in lottery-based games via the Internet, especially via the
websites www.ventura24.es, www.giochi24.it, www.mylotto24.co.uk and
www.tipp24.com. From its foundation to the end of 2008, Tipp24 SE brokered
tickets worth over 1.5 billion euros to the state lottery companies - in
the latter years over 330 million euros annually. Following its successful
IPO in 2005 (Prime Standard), the company was admitted to the SDAX index in
June 2009. In July 2012, German online brokerage activities were
successfully spun off from Tipp24 SE in the form of the company Lotto24 AG,
which is listed separately on the stock exchange.
