Christian Lundberg the new Chairman of Raketech Group

RakeTech Group, one of Europe’s leading iGaming affiliates, yesterday announced Christian Lundberg as the new chairman of the company’s board. Mr. Lundberg has an extensive experience from leading international organisations, with a focus on building successful company cultures that support long-term and profitable growth.
Raketech is in a maturing phase where the company strengthens both its executive management and board to secure continued high and long-term growth as well as a strengthened leadership in the ever-growing European affiliate market. Christian Lundberg currently works as a strategic adviser to several corporate leaders in both publicly listed and private companies through his own business A Force 4U. Previously, he has had leading operational positions in regulated and tech-oriented environments at Fortum (as COO Sweden) and Microsoft (as Regional Director Nordics).
”Raketech is a company with high operational capacity and advanced technical solutions, active in the fast-growing European iGaming industry”, said Christian Lundberg. “I believe Raketech has real possibilities to drive the continued development of the sector through responsible affiliate services with a focus on user value, and consequently secure a long-term and sustainable growth. At the same time, we will continue to pursue our active acquisition agenda, where we target assets of high quality with leading market positions”.
”With Christian joining, we will further sharpen Raketech’s leadership,” said Michael Holmberg, Raketech Group CEO. “Christian has vast experience from building winning cultures where everyone works towards the same goals and meets market demands with a focus on long-term values and profitability. He joins in an intense period where we among other activities recently have acquired several assets in Denmark. In addition, we have just reached our 100th employee, from being just some 30 people a year ago. I look forward to working together with Christian and the rest of the board members to take Raketech to the next level.”
Raketech has been growing at an impressive rate this year – the group started development on a new office floor to cater for a recent recruitment drive and celebrated hitting a huge milestone by employing its 100th employee.

QMRA Recognition by Google & Meta in Denmark – A Milestone for Compliance
QMRA has now been active for nearly a year, and we are proud to have welcomed many members who share our commitment to responsible affiliation. We continue to work towards becoming the leading compliance indicator for international affiliates.
Beyond compliance, we are expanding our efforts into advocacy. For example, in Finland, we have launched lobbying initiatives as the government considers restricting affiliate activities.
Most importantly, several QMRA members are actively seeking advertising licenses from Google and Meta in various jurisdictions. We are pleased to confirm that in Denmark, both platforms have recognized QMRA membership as a decisive factor in granting these licenses. This information has been directly communicated to us by our members.
This is a significant milestone for QMRA. It confirms that our compliance checks and the presence of the QMRA quality mark on an iGaming affiliate website are taken seriously by key industry players. Additionally, we know that in other markets, QMRA membership is already being considered in similar assessments.
We will continue to strengthen our position and expand our influence. Thank you for your continued support in upholding responsible affiliation standards.
