Adding value to a company is, without a doubt, the easiest way to put a foot in any industry. If our business card is a concrete plan for improving a business, we will most likely get hired for the position or, going even further; the company might create the job position for us. 

Our guest, Mike Cotton, certainly mastered this skill throughout his exciting and multifaceted career. He is the Founder, President, and COO of Wondr Gaming and the President and COO of Gamelancer, the largest Gen Z social gaming network. Mike is also the Founder and Chief Investment Officer at Rumble Gaming and an Investor and Advisor at PropSwap LLC. 

In this episode, we delve into Mike’s vertiginous professional career. We explore his background as an economist and “statistics nerd” that helped him differentiate himself in the traditional sports and esports industries. He shared his experiences, the lessons learned, and some practical advice for those interested in joining sports, esports, or any other industry. 

We also talk about his experiences in the VC world, his time as COO of Toronto Esports Club, and his current role at Gamelancer.
