“Better Collective is all about transparency. We aim to make sports betting and gambling entertaining, transparent and fair, and a partnership with a world class brand like The Daily Telegraph allows us to empower millions of UK online bettors. This innovative commercial partnership – in my mind – very well illustrates the future of the fierce media market. I think we will see more ventures like this, and we will definitely be able to benefit from each other’s expertise. I am very proud that The Telegraph Media Group has chosen us to assist them in developing their business.”
