Bragg Gaming Group Facilitates Executive Block Trade
Bragg Gaming Group ((BRAG, BRAG) ("Bragg" or the "Company"), a leading iGaming content and technology provider, today announced that its Board of Directors approved a limited waiver of the company's scheduled blackout period, in order to permit its chief executive officer, Matevž Mazij, to conduct a block sale of 1,039,000 common shares of the Company to a single purchaser in a private transaction (the "Sale").
