Listen Later

Ep. 121 features Kelson Quan from Wager Games, which is the social content plugin for sports betting apps.

 

Hear him discuss:

  • Growing up in San Francisco, and his background working in tech at companies like Apple
  • Why he thinks the betting industry hasn’t received more attention from Silicon Valley entrepreneurs and investors
  • How Wager Games is using video content to make sports betting more accessible for people without betting domain expertise
  • Building product, and his team’s approach to customer-driven development
  • Why he’s so bullish on the sports betting industry as a space to be building in
  • Building WagerGames in a lean way while living “on the ramen noodle diet”, and being “super intentional about everything”
  • Why he doesn’t think he’ll ever feel like Wager Games has found product/market fit
  • A crazy story of scrappiness that included a last-minute flight to show up unannounced at the offices of a key partner
