Novig

Novig's Engineering Team has finalized a blockbuster deal to sign Trevor Foote and Declan Elias. We’re thrilled to have them on the roster this season as we continue building the most efficient and transparent sports trading platform in the industry!

Novig HQ has been a long time coming. We started in a dorm room. Then came the SF Airbnb when we were in YC. A flex-wall apartment in LES. The WeWork in Dumbo. And finally, a sublease in Soho. Each played its role. This one feels different. Opening our headquarters doesn’t change our DNA. It’s where we double down on it. We're as hungry as ever and just beginning. The next chapter of Novig starts now.

Novig is hiring a Marketing Analyst! This role will operate at the intersection of strategic partnerships, platform analytics, and creative strategy. We’re looking for candidates with strong communication skills, a passion for sports, and an eagerness to work in a fast-paced, innovative environment. Apply now: https://lnkd.in/e6jV2KSJ

Pleased to officially welcome Alex Wolf to the team as Novig’s Chief Legal Officer. We’re also excited to have Chris Staszak joining as Senior Legal Counsel, Government and Regulatory Affairs. Alex and Chris bring deep expertise in sports gaming and compliance — from industry leaders like FanDuel and Underdog — that will be instrumental as we navigate an increasingly complex and dynamic legal environment. “As our business grows and the legal landscape continues to evolve, Novig is investing in experienced legal leadership to ensure that we maintain a culture of compliance and continue to be a leader in integrity and responsibility.” — Jacob Fortinsky, CEO Full press release here: https://lnkd.in/e3BYFJgU

7 brands made it onto the MSG court for the Knicks’ final home game of their historic 2025 season. Only one pulled it off in under 10 days. Only one was backed by a five-person marketing team. Only one sparked a viral moment that had Knicks fans and the media talking all week. That was Novig. Novig and NYC share the same DNA — fast-moving, community-driven, and rooted in a love for the game. That’s how we turned a cultural moment into authentic brand awareness at scale. For the price of two tickets, the Jalen Brunson lookalike contest generated over $250,000 in earned media. Our only regret? Not being able to send Zach Davidson to Game 7. Huge shoutout to Mike McLaughlin, Josh Troyetsky, Nikhil Panu, and Seth Wilkosz for crushing this campaign.

Most people don’t realize how badly sportsbooks misprice futures. That changes today. We just launched peer-to-peer futures markets on Novig — with zero commission or fees. This isn’t just a product release. It’s a step toward fixing a broken market structure — one where odds move dynamically and the market, not the house, sets the price. If you’ve ever wanted to short an overhyped team or back a sleeper before the crowd catches on, Novig is now the place to do it. With the NBA Playoffs heating up, the timing couldn’t be better. So… who are you taking to win it all this year?
