SportingBet started as a formal sportsbook in 1997 by the decorated English entrepreneur Mark Blandford. Born in Herefordshire, England near the River Wye close to Wales, Mr. Blandford is widely recognized as a pioneer in the Internet gambling industry as a result of being one of the earliest offline bookmakers to see the potential for sports betting online. Mark was a traditional ‘bricks and mortar’ bookmaker for more than 15 years and was one of the first bookmakers to make the bold move to offer sports betting services via the Internet to an international clientele.
Blandford went public with SportingBet in January 2001 via the London Stock Exchange as a part of its Alternative Investment Market. It turned out to be a successful effort and Blandford was rewarded by the LSE as the AIM (Alternative Investment Market) Entrepreneur of the Year in 2002. SportingBet’s success continued and its parent Company later earned the honour of AIM Transaction of the Year in 2005.
