Catalist Sports Names James Monk as VP & General Manager to Lead U.S. Launch

Seasoned sports betting executive will lead the newly established entity and spearhead partnerships with content suppliers seeking to enter the regulated US betting market.

NEW YORK, NY (NOVEMBER 12, 2025) - Catalist Sports, the newly established licensed supplier of sports betting content to the regulated U.S. marketplace, has appointed James Monk as Vice President & General Manager.

Monk will lead the company’s launch and operations across the United States as Catalist Sports establishes its presence in one of the world’s fastest-growing sports betting markets.

From Catalist Sports’ New York City offices, Monk will oversee all aspects of U.S. operations, including commercial partnerships with licensed operators, regulatory licensing and compliance, product rollout, and business development strategy.

Catalist Sports enters the U.S. market as the exclusive reseller of Infront Sports & Media content, bringing official data and live streaming rights from a portfolio of more than 60,000 annual events to licensed U.S. sportsbooks. This includes top-tier tennis properties such as the Australian Open, ITF World Tour, Davis Cup, and Billie Jean King Cup, as well as an additional 40,000 events across soccer, basketball, and ice hockey.

Catalist Sports is also collaborating with other international sports content and pricing feed providers seeking compliant, strategic access to the regulated U.S. betting market.

Monk brings a wealth of commercial and operational experience to the role, leading commercial partnerships and content distribution across international sportsbook operators. 

“Catalist Sports’ entry into the U.S. market marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter,” said James Monk, VP & General Manager of Catalist Sports. “With a first-class content portfolio and regulatory approval in place, we’re perfectly positioned to help operators enhance their offerings through high-quality, official, exclusive content, not available anywhere else. We’re proud to be building a business founded on compliance, partnership, and innovation, by partnering with best-in-class third-party suppliers.”

Catalist Sports is licensed in 28 states and recently secured a supplier’s license in the state of Missouri, following approval by the Missouri Gaming Commission. The license represents a key step in Catalist Sports’ regulatory roadmap, allowing the company to distribute its official live content to licensed sportsbooks in one of the most anticipated new state markets for its December 1st launch.
