#44: Evan Kirkham - CEO, Co-Founder Outlier | Sports betting super app | Law background benefits as a founder | 5-year PAPSA anniversary | Sports betting & tech trends | Pivoting a company

Outlier raised over $3M to pivot their original idea and build the first-of-its-kind sports betting platform where sports fans can browse, analyze, and execute bets with confidence. 

Evan Kirkham was previously a litigation attorney before jumping into the sports tech founder seat (which gives him a unique perspective on the market). 

Recorded near the 5th anniversary of PAPSA, which legalized mobile sports betting in the US, this was a very insightful conversation as Outlier is attempting to build a sports betting super app.
