CV
Mark Davies was part of Betfair’s founder-management team. He joined Betfair in March 2000 before its launch, and is one of the company's Managing Directors.
He began his career as a bond trader for JPMorgan, before leaving to pursue a career in the media, where he worked for BBC Radio and Television and the Daily Telegraph.
He has played a key role in most of Betfair’s major milestones in the last eight years, developing the much-talked-about Memorandums of Understanding with sporting bodies around the world, and leading the company’s work with the UK Government in the run-up to the Gambling Act 2005.
He also led Betfair’s lengthy discussions with the UK Treasury, as well as the negotiations for an Australian licence: he worked with the Federal and state governments Down Under prior to the company successfully gaining the right to an Australian base in February 2006.
He is Betfair’s most regular spokesman at conferences, on television and on radio.
