GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Richard Schwartz, CEO and Co-Founder, Rush Street Interactive

Richard Schwartz co-founded Rush Street Interactive in 2012, before any online gaming was legal in the U.S. Initially RSI focused on social gaming, it ramped up quickly as online gaming was legalized in New Jersey in 2013. When PASPA was repealed and sports betting was added to the menu, RSI spent time getting their app right, and today is one of the fastest-growing apps in the industry. RSI is cautiously approaching the legalization of mobile online gaming in New York, where it already operates the most successful retail sports book in the state. Schwartz spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at G2E in Las Vegas earlier this month.
