Industry veteran to lead VLT, expanding ALT Sports Data's capabilities for sports organizations navigating the evolving sports betting landscape
Â

Carlsbad, CA (July 30th, 2026)Â - ALT Sports Data (ASD) today announced the appointment of Faiz Kabir as Head of Integrity & Governance, where he will lead the company's Integrity & Governance practice and oversee VLT, ALT Sports Data's new integrity and governance solution.
Â
Kabir joins ALT Sports Data following a career dedicated to sports integrity, governance, betting compliance, regulatory engagement, and commercial strategy. Having worked alongside sports organizations, betting operators, and industry stakeholders across multiple markets, he brings extensive experience helping organizations build governance programs that protect competition while supporting responsible commercial growth.
Â
His appointment reflects the continued evolution of the global sports betting landscape. As more leagues and rights holders incorporate sports betting into their long-term commercial strategies, integrity and governance have become increasingly important to building sustainable relationships with athletes, regulators, betting operators, commercial partners, and fans.
Â
VLT has been developed to help organizations establish governance programs that reflect their stage of growth and long-term objectives. The solution combines governance frameworks, participant education, integrity policies, reporting procedures, incident response planning, and strategic advisory services into a practical approach that evolves alongside each organization. Designed to complement the broader integrity ecosystem, VLT provides the resources and expertise needed to strengthen internal governance while preparing for future opportunities.

Â
"As our partners continue to grow, the conversations we're having with them are evolving as well," said Jake Cassaday, Chief Executive Officer of ALT Sports Data. "Integrity and governance have become a critical part of the commercial strategies that leagues are building around sports betting. Organizations are looking for experienced partners who understand both the opportunity and the responsibility that comes with that, and Faiz brings exactly that perspective. He's the right leader to make VLT the standard for governance in emerging and alternative sports."
Â
"Throughout my career, I've found that the strongest integrity programs are the ones built around the realities of the organization rather than a predetermined model," said Faiz Kabir, Head of Integrity & Governance at ALT Sports Data. "Every league has its own priorities, resources, and ambitions. VLT gives us the opportunity to work alongside organizations to develop governance programs that fit those needs, strengthen confidence across their ecosystem, and support long-term growth. I'm excited to join a team that shares that philosophy."
Â
The addition of Integrity & Governance reflects ALT Sports Data's continued investment in solutions that help sports organizations navigate an increasingly connected sports ecosystem. While the company has become known for its official betting data and trading technology, it continues to expand the ways it supports partners through technology, strategic expertise, and solutions that help organizations maximize the value of their data, strengthen fan engagement, and create sustainable commercial opportunities.
