Tom Fairey | The big Russian guy: Unexpected start of a multimillion dollar business
Thomas is not your regular entrepreneur. In fact, he’s everything but normal.
After he wrestled a huge Russian guy for money (and won), he got an idea that led to an extraordinary journey of starting Stakester – a platform allowing video game players to back themselves. If you’re better than your friend, you win. If not, well…
He traveled to New York to introduce this concept to the Rockstar Games co-founder Gary Foreman. Gary listed 16 reasons why it won’t work. Then he joined Thomas’ team.
Since then, Stakester’s been able to raise millions of dollars, attract thousands of competitive players, and spread the message about fundraising and building & scaling a successful online business.
Tom also runs The Back Yourself Show. A podcast on a mission to empower those thinking about launching their own startup and turning those who have into superstar successes.
