As part of their overall plan to grow their American presence, a DraftKings Las Vegas office has opened. The fantasy and sports betting operator Las Vegas facility will host about 300 employees, including customer support, fraud, casino, sports book traders, human resource and IT personnel.

The move comes after DraftKings last month agreed a deal to be acquired by a special purpose acquisition company alongside betting and gaming technology provider SBTech. As part of this transaction, the business agreed be reincorporated in Nevada.

Since October 2018, DraftKings said it has seen a 40% increase in its overall employee headcount, while the operator also recently announced a 20,000sq ft expansion of its Boston global headquarters. You can read more about the DraftKings Las Vegas at iGB North America.
