With Tipsterizer named as the winner of the Digital Footprints Accelerator Fund, we’re now moving on to Phase 2.
This next stage will involve bringing together a small, curated group of high-calibre iGaming executives, who will provide structured, peer-level mentorship to the Accelerator Fund winner. The aim is simple: combine hands-on marketing with real-world strategic insight from leaders who have already built and scaled iGaming brands.
Why Mentors?
The iGaming landscape is increasingly competitive, with startups required to scale quickly while navigating regulation, crowded markets and rising expectations from both partners and players.
While early momentum is important, access to experienced perspectives can make a critical difference during early and often risky stages of growth. Phase 2 of the Accelerator Fund will connect our winner with senior iGaming leaders who have already navigated these challenges, helping founders make better-informed decisions and accelerate growth with confidence.
What’s Expected of Mentors?
Mentor involvement is time-limited and focused on strategic, peer-level insight.
Mentors will act as a sounding board for the Accelerator Fund winner, sharing leadership and growth experience, challenging assumptions and providing perspective at C-suite level.
The programme will consist of:
- Two structured mentor sessions over a 3-6 month period
- Optional participation in our Accelerator Fund Community
Each cohort begins with a strategy session with the Digital Footprints C-suite to identify key marketing gaps. Where deeper support is required, mentor expertise is identified and matched based on real-world experience. Mentors are never assigned at random.
There is no expectation of work or ongoing availability outside these sessions.
What Mentors Gain
The programme is designed to be mutually valuable, not transactional.
Mentors will benefit from:
- The opportunity to give back by supporting a high-potential iGaming brand
- Public recognition as an official Digital Footprints Accelerator Fund mentor
- Association with a curated, quality-led industry initiative
- Visibility across associated social channels
- Engagement on their own terms
Who We’re Looking For
If you have built, scaled, or led in iGaming, we want to hear from you.
We’re looking to connect with senior leaders from across the iGaming ecosystem who bring real-world experience of operating and growing businesses in regulated markets. This includes C-level executives, founders and ex-founders, board members and senior advisors from operator, supplier, platform, media, payments and affiliate-led businesses.
This programme is suited to people who enjoy sharing perspectives, challenging thinking and helping ambitious teams navigate critical decisions at key stages of growth. We’re particularly keen to hear from individuals who value thoughtful contribution over visibility, and who are motivated by helping shape the next generation of iGaming brands.
