iGaming veterans back Intro, a network built to make warm introductions repeatable

David Flynn, whose career spans board and C-level roles at LCKY Group, Microgaming, NYX Gaming Group and Solance, joins as chairman. Britt Boeskov, formerly chief experience officer at Kindred Group joins the board alongside her board positions at Better Collective, Mindway.ai, GAMING1 and MAG Interactive.

They are joined by Danny Keens, previously SVP sports & media partnerships at Twitter and before that ESPN and 60 Minutes, and Erik M Throndsen, recently retired regional director at SpareBank 1 Sør-Norge.

Commenting on this latest announcement, Flynn said, “With 26 investors across eleven countries, Intro is backed by an incredibly strong network across iGaming and the Nordic investor community. Intro has already proven that warm introductions work best for business and this is how we have grown our investor base at such an early stage. We anticipate that this will only continue to rapidly grow as we look to launch more extensively later in the year. 

“Everyone in business knows that a warm introduction works better than a cold approach, yet nobody had built a system that produced them. Therefore, we are creating an exclusive eco-system which can help support businesses achieve commercial success by having someone who will genuinely vouch for them. Importantly, every relationship carries how the two people actually know each other, and both must confirm it.”

“As AI floods the digital world with automated spam, real human trust becomes the ultimate premium,” said Øyvind Kvamme-Vik, founder and CEO. “You cannot reach anyone here unless somebody vouches for you. AI maps the route, but humans open the door. That constraint is the product.”

The company is aimed at people who trade in access: founders, investors, commercial leaders and recruiters, which has an estimated reach of 50 million people globally.
