Can access and community turn ideas into funded startups?
In Episode 4, the Season 2 finale of Bet It Drives, GR8 Tech CSO Yevhen Krazhan rides through Lisbon with Kelly Kehn, founder, board member, startup advisor, and co-founder of Defy the Odds (DTO). Kelly breaks down why showing up at iGaming events matters, how DTO connects founders, operators, and investors, and the stage-by-stage KPIs she wants to see: from interest and LOIs to retention and expansion. She gets candid on fundraising reality (hundreds of conversations for a few yeses), turning “crazy” ideas into inevitable pitches, and what’s next: women’s sports and new game formats. Plus: Network or Not Work checks, the songs she cues for wins and coaching, and her champion rule—be kind to yourself and to others.
Fast, human, and finale-ready—this ride crosses the line at full throttle.
