Former Zynga executive undertakes own gaming business venture
She left 888 two years ago to join Zynga to help launch the company’s real money offerings, however, the company was reluctant to move forward with that business.
Olsha was first employed as the chief operating officer for new markets, with her remit to take Zynga into real-money gambling. But the company changed its strategy after its disappointing public offering in 2011.
With Zynga deciding to focus instead on virtual-goods based social casino games such as Zynga Poker and Hit It Rich Slots.
Following that change in approach by Zynga, Olsha changed roles, taking over the social slots business, which included Hit It Rich Slots and Duck Dynasty Slots.
The name of the new company which will be launched and what markets Olsha will focus her new company on is still not known.
