A Message From GameOn $GET CEO Matt Bailey re: Times Internet & Polygon

Posted by AGORACOM at 11:53 AM on Monday, December 6th, 2021

Shareholders & friends,

Off the back of announcing our deals with Times Internet and Polygon ($MATIC), I wanted to end the week with a personal note. This week was a watershed moment for GameOn. A moment when a small, relatively unknown CA$20 million market cap company became backed by India’s largest media conglomerate and a leading blockchain with a US$22 billion market cap. This is strong validation of the mission, products and team that fuel our business each day. 

While many don’t know who we are yet, that’s now shifting. Just yesterday, we were written up by VentureBeat, a tech news leader that receives 12 million monthly views and is regularly read by Mark Zuckerberg. I was also recently featured in Forbes. Both customers and investors are being awoken by the noise we’re making, and they’re starting to take note.

While the market has been choppy, we’ve quietly had our heads down building and closing deals. 2022 is set up to be the year of scaling customers and revenue. If you’ve followed us since listing, you’ll know we execute on what we say we will. We expect the next 12-24 months to be no different. The first inning is over. Batter up for the second, now with the likes of Times Internet and Polygon on-deck.

Look out for a more detailed corporate update next week. In the meantime, thank you for the ongoing support. Have a great weekend! 

Cheers,
Matt

GameOn Entertainment Technologies (CSE: GET) (OTC: GMETF) powers the best content in the world with the most innovative predictive gaming technologies by providing broadcasters, TV networks, OTT platforms, leagues, tournaments and sportsbooks with interactive, social experiences around sports, television and live events.

The company lets fans connect, make predictions, track live scores and be rewarded during every moment of their favorite sports, TV shows and live events, offering a solution for the future of superfan engagement.

Two of the firm’s most recent deals have made waves in the world of international cricket. After securing Indian giant MX Player as a partner in June, GameOn this month struck a deal with North American cricket coverage provider Willow TV.

The free-to-play games will be available to MX Player and Willow TV’s large and diverse fan bases for global cricket events, tournaments and leagues, and both products will go live to more than 280 million monthly viewers in October, in time for the ICC T20 World Cup.  

The partnerships are just two initiatives ahead of what is expected to be a major Q4. GameOn has also launched an NFL Shareholder Survivor Pool tournament, which is free to play for shareholders, partners and friends of the business.

Throughout the contest, competitors will learn more about the people behind the company, with prizes including rare NFTs and an all-inclusive trip to an NFL game with GameOn CEO Matt Bailey.
