TORONTO, June 18, 2018 /CNW/ - Global Daily Fantasy Sports
Inc. ("Global" or the "Company") (TSX-V: DFS), a B2B Daily Fantasy

euro. Microgame is the only Service Provider in Italy that provides complete turnkey gaming
solutions including game account platforms and interconnection to
the regulator's systems. In addition, Microgame has market-leading

position to deliver Global's Daily Fantasy Sports product to all
their ADM-licensed Operators in Italy. Microgame joins Global's

steps up its European presence for the most widely viewed and
followed sporting event in the world.
