They are representative of GLI’s tradition for having the most complete team of subject matter and jurisdictional experts to help guide our clients to successful outcomes,” said James Maida, president and CEO.

Benedik has a storied career in compliance with the state of Florida’s Department of Business and Professional Regulation, where he served for 12 years, most recently as chief of slot operations. Previously he served as slot operations manager, auditor IV (lead), auditor III, and slot operations specialist. He has extensive knowledge of crucial compliance areas, including audit, operations, state and tribal regulations, internal control standards, Title 31, the Bank Secrecy Act, and anti-money laundering reporting and recordkeeping. His background and expertise in compliance will be instrumental in leading GLI’s clients into new jurisdictions, markets, and delivery channels, resulting in successful product launches.

Edwards has been tapped to lead as GLI’s newest technical compliance account executive. He has more than 18 years of gaming jurisdictional compliance experience and will bring deep professional mastery to GLI clients, functioning as a technical compliance engineer and client solutions expert.
