Miami Beach will be Daily Fantasy Sports Central the first week in August with organizers of the highly anticipated Daily Fantasy Sports Expo confirming that DraftKings.com CEO Jason Robins will be speaking at the event.

DraftKings is a leader in the world of Daily Fantasy Sports.  They have partnered with a number of major league sports teams including the New England Patriots, and more recently the red hot Golden State Warriors. 

Robins along with Matthew Kalish and Paul Liberman launched DraftKings in 2012 with $1.4 million in seed capital.   Since that time the company has witnessed explosive growth, much of which has occurred in just the past six months.  DraftKings advertised heavily during NFL and College Football games during the 2014-2015 season.
