10 Questions – George Oborne

In the second edition of 10 Questions, we delve into the mind of this British young lad who is trailblazing the way to the Indian gaming market for businesses and investors outside this vast South Asian country.

George Oborne is the Managing Director of India Bet, a content site which has transitioned into a free-to-play, social betting site catering to a massive user base in India. Only at 27, this tall and smiley gentleman with his boy-next-door looks can destroy your reservations about exploring India’s market potential with his candor and eloquence about the opportunities in one of the world’s largest population with access to the internet. This is remarkable for someone who was born and raised in the United Kingdom. And for that, we can all agree that George has become the industry’s non-Indian go-to-guy for anything about India.
