13 April 2026 – Golden Whale, a provider of machine learning-powered optimisation and decision intelligence solutions for the iGaming sector, has announced the appointment of Jaime Ocampo as Managing Director, Asia. The move represents a key milestone in the company’s ongoing expansion across the Asia-Pacific region.
In his new role, Ocampo will oversee Golden Whale’s commercial development and regional strategy throughout Asia-Pacific. He will focus on helping operators implement continuously learning models designed to enhance precision in decision-making across player engagement and incentive strategies.
Ocampo joins the company with more than two decades of experience spanning digital technology, gaming and data-led growth. His career includes senior leadership positions at global organisations such as Kochava, DeNA, Funstage GmbH and Electronic Arts. His expertise covers digital marketing, mobile gaming, monetisation and user acquisition, alongside a strong grounding in data science, modelling and SaaS optimisation.
Earlier in his career, Ocampo contributed to the expansion of mobile gaming operations across several Asia-Pacific markets. His work included securing major publishing partnerships and delivering multi-million revenue growth through live operations and in-game re-engagement initiatives.
Eberhard Dürrschmid, CEO at Golden Whale, said:
“Asia is a strategically important region for us, with a diverse and fast-moving market. Jaime brings a rare combination of experience across gaming, data and commercial strategy, which aligns closely with how we support operators today. His understanding of both the operational challenges and the underlying data opportunities makes him ideally positioned to lead our expansion in the region.”
Jaime Ocampo, Managing Director, Asia at Golden Whale, added:
“The opportunity in Asia is significant, particularly as operators look to move beyond traditional campaign structures and adopt more adaptive, data-driven approaches to player engagement. Golden Whale’s technology is built to support that transition, and I am looking forward to working closely with partners across the region to help unlock new levels of performance and efficiency.”
