In this wildly insighful conversation with Evolution's Chief Product Officer Todd Haushalter, we have a wide ranging conversation on everything from Evolution's moats and why its so hard to make great product to game innovation and how Evolution plans to stay ahead of the competition.

Todd Haushalter joined Evolution in 2015 and is responsible for having created billions of dollars of value for the company, in addition to having created many new live casino gaming formats that are among players favorites.

Many in the industry joke that he and his team at Evolution are the R&D department for the entire industry. When Evolution rolled out Lightening Roulette, competitors followed with Quantum Roulette and Mega Roulette. Rather than getting caught up in competing with copycats, Todd pushes his team to always focus on the player, delivering the best gaming experience for them.

All sorts of subtleties from camera angle switches to the timing of ball drops reflect Todd's relentless pursuit of an unparalleled player experience. Whereas competitors compete on price, his games win because players actively seek them out.

Whether you are familiar with live casino or not, everyone can learn from Todd Haushalter's business and operational acumen, which is flowering with insights that only a truly passionate and driven operator could articulate.
