BLUF: New Leadership and Trust-Focused Strategy for Network Launch
The Intro.community platform adds 26 investors from 11 countries and strengthens its direction with recognized figures from key sectors in online gaming and international media. The broader launch of the network is anticipated for the last quarter of the year and will be strictly invitation-only, as announced by the company and its new executives.
Incorporation of Leaders with a Track Record in iGaming and Media
Alongside David Flynn, Britt Boeskov joins the board, bringing her previous experience as Chief Experience Officer at Kindred Group and her current roles at Better Collective, Mindway.ai, GAMING1, and MAG Interactive. Danny Keens, former SVP Sports & Media Partnerships at Twitter (also previously linked to ESPN and 60 Minutes), joins as a new board member. Erik M. Throndsen, who recently retired as Regional Director at SpareBank 1 Sør-Norge, completes the board renewal.
Statements and Vision from Executives
Flynn highlighted the method used to build the investor base: "Intro has already shown that warm introductions work better for business, and this is how we've expanded our investor base at this early stage. We expect this growth to accelerate as we expand the launch towards the end of the year."
For his part, Øyvind Kvamme-Vik, founder and CEO, emphasized the core of the proposal: the creation of validated human trust. > "As artificial intelligence floods the digital world with automated spam, real human trust becomes the true premium value. No one can contact another user unless someone vouches for them. AI maps the path, but humans open the door. That restriction is the product," Kvamme-Vik explained.
A Professional Network Designed for the Global iGaming Sector
Intro.community targets founders, investors, business leaders, and recruiters, a segment the company estimates encompasses 50 million people worldwide. This figure reflects the firm’s ambition to position its platform at the heart of the global community of professionals in the sector.
The invitation-only access model and restricted verification aim to differentiate Intro.community in an environment saturated with automation and mass contact facilitated by AI tools. The company presents trust as a distinguishing feature, with personal endorsement serving as an entry barrier and quality filter in building professional networks.
Perspectives for International Expansion and Next Steps
With confirmation of early investment from 26 relevant players from 11 markets, Intro.community secures a diversified base ahead of the global introduction of its platform. The broader launch, scheduled for the last quarter of 2026, will consolidate the model of selective growth based on recommendations and access through validated contacts, aligning with the strategy outlined by the company.
The executive structure includes profiles with experience in companies such as Microgaming, Kindred Group, Better Collective, and Twitter, positioning Intro.community favorably to attract professionals from the iGaming sector, digital media, and specialized international financial services.
