Mission
SBA believes customers in all 50 states should enjoy the benefits of transparent and legal sports betting and online casino gaming with consumer protections and responsible gaming tools that do not exist on the unregulated market.
Who We Are

Jeremy Kudon
Chairman
Jeremy Kudon oversees the Sports Betting Alliance’s national strategy and legislative efforts across all fifty states. He is widely recognized as the architect of the modern U.S. online sports betting landscape, having led the national campaigns that resulted in the legalization of online sports betting in 29 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico — jurisdictions representing more than half of the U.S. population.
Kudon has been twice named a Sports Business Journal Power Player and is a three-time Law360 MVP for Sports Betting & Gaming, as well as a recipient of the Financial Times Innovation Award for Regulatory Campaigns. Prior to the nationwide expansion of sports betting, he helped DraftKings and FanDuel pass legislation in 23 states confirming the legality of paid daily fantasy sports contests — laying the groundwork for the regulated online sports betting and iGaming markets that exist today.
