Kevin April (He/Him)

I’m a repeat founder driven by a lifelong obsession with the internet’s power to connect, inspire, and empower communities around the world. I’ve spent over two decades building platforms across media, sports, and digital culture.

I started with Spymac, which became the world’s largest Mac user community and one of the first viral Web 2.0 platforms. I then co-founded SportsBlog, grew it into a comScore Top-20 property, and partnered with the NFL, NBA, WNBA, and Retired NBA Players Associations, where I helped launch their first-ever players-only apps.

Next, I co-founded SportsCastr, an interactive streaming platform backed by the NFL Players Association. It later evolved into PANDA Interactive, an enterprise-grade, fully licensed ‘Watch & Bet’ platform used by top sportsbooks, leagues, and media companies.

My work focuses on building platforms that turn audiences into participants. I hold several foundational patents in interactive video and social technology, have spoken at CES and SBJ’s Thought Leaders, and have been featured in WIRED, CNBC, Entrepreneur, OZY, and other leading outlets.
