Gameway Appoints Brian Quinn as Chief Commercial Officer

Gameway has appointed Brian Quinn as chief commercial officer, adding a veteran airport retail executive to lead revenue strategy, partnerships and expansion across its airport-based entertainment concepts

Quinn joins Gameway following a 35-year career in travel retail, most notably with Hudson, where he served as executive vice president and deputy chief executive officer. During his tenure, Quinn helped scale Hudson’s airport retail platform across more than 1,000 locations and led expansion into large, complex hub airports across North America.

In his new role, Quinn will oversee commercial strategy for both Gameway and its Portal Lounge concept, guiding airport partnerships, concession growth and market entry as the company expands its footprint in U.S. airports.

Company leadership said the appointment supports Gameway’s next phase of growth as airports continue to explore experiential concessions that extend beyond traditional food and retail offerings.

Quinn’s background includes negotiating and renewing major concession agreements, overseeing large-scale airport operations and advancing digitized and contactless retail models, experience that aligns with airports’ evolving expectations for non-aeronautical revenue and passenger engagement.

“As airports rethink how space is used and monetized, experiential concepts are becoming part of the conversation,” Quinn said in a statement. “Gameway presents an opportunity to build a scalable airport brand that fits within that evolving landscape.”

Gameway operates gaming lounges in major U.S. airports and is preparing to introduce Portal Lounge, a premium entertainment-focused concept, at Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport later this year.

Company officials said Quinn’s appointment reflects an emphasis on disciplined growth, airport alignment and long-term commercial partnerships as experiential concessions gain traction across the industry.
