Profile and responsibilities
Muhanned assumes the role with a track record in brand strategy and international alliances for BC Game. The company, described as a global online casino and sports-betting platform, highlights his trajectory and now presents him as Chief Executive Officer.

"For me, this is the next step in a business I have been deeply involved with for years," Muhanned said.
Operational priorities and community commitments
Muhanned has set three specific commitments to bring leadership closer to players and improve issue resolution:
Monthly open sessions: live conversations where Muhanned will answer questions, discuss priorities and share business updates.
Dedicated escalation channel: a route for unresolved issues to reach a team that will report directly to the CEO.
Regular public progress reports: updates on the most recurrent player-raised issues, ongoing actions and remaining work.
Muhanned explained his incident-management approach: "Trust is not built with announcements. It is built by what happens when something goes wrong." He added that he wants to understand why problems recur and ensure clear responses and proper follow-up.
Product, markets and responsibility
Under his leadership, BC Game will concentrate efforts on improving its core offering of casino and sports betting, reinforce international partnerships and pursue responsible growth in new markets. Community and entertainment will remain strategic elements, alongside a greater emphasis on service quality and responsible play. The company said these measures aim to enhance the product and player experience while maintaining operational standards.
Muhanned said: "We have a clear ambition for BC Game, and I want our players and team to understand where we are headed." He stated his responsibility is to turn that ambition into consistent progress in product, issue response and business standards.
Public engagement and first actions
Players can follow Muhanned on X at @akofocus and on Instagram to submit feedback and join community discussions. Muhanned’s first live event is scheduled for Saturday 7 November 2026 at Gosh.com/akofocus; the start time will be announced closer to the date.
