B90 Holdings plc
("B90" or the "Company")
Mark Blandford Appointed as Strategic Adviser
B90 Holdings (AIM: B90), the online marketing and operating
company for the gaming industry, today announces that it has
appointed Mark Blandford as a strategic adviser to the Company with
immediate effect.
Mark is senior industry figure and considered by many to be one
of the founders of the developed online gaming industry. Having
started his career as the owner of a traditional 'bricks and
mortar' bookmaker's chain for over 15 years, he then recognised the
potential of the internet for the industry in the mid-1990s. In
1998 he founded Sportingbet.com, and in 2001 floated the company on
AIM. Mark stepped down from the Board of Sportingbet in 2007 before
its eventual sale in 2013 with the assets being split between
William Hill and GVC. In 2002, he was awarded AIM Entrepreneur of
the Year.
After stepping down from the board of Sportingbet, Mark has
become an active, successful and widely followed investor in the
digital gambling and entertainment space. His family investment
portfolio now spans over 40 companies across a broad range of
sectors, but still with a primary focus on gaming, support services
and data driven scalable tech businesses. He is a current
non-executive director of Gaming Realms plc (AIM: GMR), the
developer and licensor of mobile focused gaming content. He also
sits as Chairman of the board of Nasdaq-listed Gambling.com Group
Limited (Nasdaq: GAMB), a performance marketing company and a
leading provider of digital marketing services active in the global
online gambling industry. Mark serves as Chairman of the board of
directors at FSB Technology (U.K.) Ltd., Double Diamond Gaming
Limited, and Condor Properties.
Ronny Breivik, Interim Executive Chairman of B90, commented:
"Mark has pioneered the development, financing, and monetising
of digital Pay2Play entertainment companies over the last fifteen
years and having worked with him previously at Sportingbet, I am
extremely pleased that he has invested in B90 and has now agreed to
become a strategic adviser to the Company. His experience, advice,
market insight and knowledge; as well as his network of contacts,
will be invaluable to us as we embark on the next phase of our
growth."
Mark Blandford added:
"B90 is determined to make more use of the opportunities
afforded by its listing on the AIM market, particularly as it is
one of the few stock market listed online bookmakers and gaming
companies on that market at present. I look forward to supporting
Ronny and his team in identifying and monetizing these
opportunities."
