Genius Sports is at the vanguard of the U.S. sports betting industry as state regulators review their position on the practice. Genius Sports is now operational in 13 U.S. states, powering award-winning official data, streaming, and marketing solutions for leading sportsbooks and lotteries.

West Virginia remains at the forefront of liberalization in the U.S. and one of the most proactive proponents of legalized sports wagering.
