Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment and capital-allocation decisions at DraftKings?
As a publicly traded operating company rather than a traditional investment firm, DraftKings does not have a chief investment officer in the family-office or allocator sense. Capital allocation is governed by the board of directors and executed by the CEO and CFO. The founding trio — CEO Jason Robins, President Matt Kalish, and President Paul Liberman — remain deeply involved in strategic decisions, including M&A and market-entry priorities.
How does DraftKings source and execute acquisitions?
The company pursues acquisitions that expand its technology stack or geographic reach. Primary-source examples include the 2022 purchase of Golden Nugget Online Gaming for roughly $1.5 billion in stock and the 2024 acquisition of Jackpocket for approximately $750 million. These deals are negotiated directly by senior management and disclosed in public filings, not through a blind-pool investment committee process.
