State gaming authority grants Genius Sports approval to support sportsbook partners statewide.
NEW YORK & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Genius Sports Limited (NYSE: GENI) (“Genius Sports”), the official data, technology and commercial partner that powers the ecosystem connecting sports, betting and media, announced today that it has been certified by the State of Connecticut, Department of Consumer Affairs, as an Online Gaming Service Provider.
With the addition of Connecticut, Genius Sports is now authorized to operate in 17 U.S. states, powering award-winning official data, streaming, and marketing solutions for leading sportsbooks and lotteries.
Online sports betting was authorized in Connecticut in May 2021, making the state the latest to legalize sports betting and begin betting operations. Connecticut’s online sportsbooks are set to launch 7th October, ahead of NFL Week 5. Earlier this week, Connecticut’s federal officials confirmed that FanDuel and DraftKings will both be authorized to take retail bets at the Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino respectively.
“We are thrilled that Connecticut has awarded Genius Sports its inaugural online gaming service provider permit, allowing authorized sportsbooks access to our industry-leading solutions,” said Mark Locke, CEO of Genius Sports. “There are an increasing number of U.S. states looking to provide their residents with the best quality fan experiences, while capturing the full value available to the state. Genius Sports welcomes the opportunity to work with states like Connecticut, using our official sports data-powered solutions to underpin their authorized sportsbooks.”
