Social gaming startup Omada has just secured $7.5 million in seed funding from Felix Capital. The French startup, which launched less than two years ago, bills itself as a healthy alternative to traditional sports betting apps. "It's not just a game, it's a social game," said cofounder and CEO Adrien Miniatti. Beyond its core game-prediction and social features, Omada has also worked on a range of campaigns to raise awareness about betting addictions. With the fresh funding, Omada will ramp up its product team, and focus on its expansion in the US.
