Kelly Kehn, co-founder of startup launchpad Defy the Odds, has highlighted the role that startup investment has in supporting the future of the igaming industry, noting that funding is available for early-stage businesses but it can be hard to find.
Speaking ahead of moderating the Startup Accelerator at iGB Live, Kehn noted that startups will need the right introductions in order to access such funding, and events are key opportunity makers.
“Exited founders have been through exactly what these founders are facing, so they get it in a way most investors don’t: the grind, the regulatory walls, what it actually takes to build here,” she said.
