Cameron Hoy Promoted at TEG

Cameron Hoy climbs the ladder at TEG, a reward for his “significant contribution” to the growth and evolution of its Ticketek subsidiary.

I look forward to continuing to work very closely with Cam in his new role and to be working together to deliver the best possible ticketing, digital and data solutions for our partners across the globe”.
