Smarkets Launch Party
August 17, 2009
Thank you very much to everyone who came Tuesday night! Hunter and I are very excited to release Smarkets, a simple and social way to bet, publicly for the first time. Smarkets is invite only at the moment. We will be sending out invite emails out over the next few weeks.
I’d also like to thank our co-sponsors of the evening, CSB Group. CSB has been instrumental in helping us get our company incorporated and applying for our gaming license in Malta

Smarkets adds Ed Stone to the team
August 10, 2009
Smarkets continues to grow! I am pleased to announce that Ed Stone [Twitter] will be joining our team. Ed has been involved in the web industry for over ten years working as a developer and later manager. He brings a wealth of web expertise to Smarkets and has worked in both London and Syndey.
Prior to Smarkets, Ed was the Web Development Manager for Yahoo! Search Europe, and then Project Director at Squiz UK, introducing them to web standards and progressive enhancement. I am really happy Ed has decided to make Smarkets his new home!
