Genius Sports is at the vanguard of the U.S. sports betting industry as state regulators review their position on the practice.
The comapny is now operational in 13 U.S. states, powering award-winning official data, streaming, and marketing solutions for leading sportsbooks and lotteries.
West Virginia was the fifth U.S. state to offer legal and regulated sports betting when it launched in 2018.
Mark Locke, CEO of Genius Sports, commented: “Genius Sports is fully committed to supporting the development of, and operating in, regulated territories in partnership with fully licensed sportsbooks.”
“West Virginia remains at the forefront of liberalization in the U.S. and one of the most proactive proponents of legalized sports wagering,” Locke added.
“I’m honored that we have been awarded this license to provide our industry leading services in the Mountain state, and that our sportsbook partners will continue to utilize our solutions to help them thrive in this rapidly growing market,” Locke concluded.
