DraftKings

History & Background

DraftKings was founded in Boston, MA in 2012. It was originally established exclusively as a head-to-head baseball competition, and received its first major investment from the MLB in 2013. Reaching a similar deal with the NHL in the following year, DraftKings established itself as an up-and-coming sports betting platform.

In May 2018, the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 was repealed, effectively legalizing sports betting across a solid portion of the United States. DraftKings established its first sportsbook not long after in August of 2018, and has led the way as one of the top online betting platforms ever since.
