"The leadership demonstrated by their management team over the past two years will help make this a seamless transition and will allow the FansUnite.com community to grow even more going into the upcoming fall and winter sports seasons, including the 2016 NFL campaign," said Ray Walia, Chief Operating Officer of Fantasy 6.

The three founders of FansUnite.com - Chief Executive Officer Darius Eghdami, Duncan McIntyre and Nicolas Shuster - will retain their operating responsibilities and take on senior roles within the Fantasy 6 sports entertainment and technology group.

"We're excited and ready to continue the rapid growth we've enjoyed on the strength of our unique fan-based approach to sports data," said Eghdami. "We see this as the next logical step in our growth and development, especially given the opportunity to leverage the core competencies of Fantasy 6 to acquire new members, create more opportunities for existing members and significantly grow our revenues. We know we'll be exposed to a whole new world of opportunities and that our social community will only thrive as part of Fantasy 6."
