Our story
How we got to where we are today.
The first gambit
Tim Wallin and Erik Nylund officially start up Gambit on a cold but beautiful winter day.
Off to Barcelona
Tim & Erik heads to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona for the latest in mobile technology.
Online presence
Can't be without a website of your own when you're in the IT biz. Back then we went by our full name: Gambit Labs.
The first app
Our app for the live TV sports service Ottelu.fi hits Google Play. It still works of course, after all these years.
A big bite into Apple
Together with UK based JENS Ltd. we launch our first major iOS application: ViDEO CLiPS. A simple but stunning video licensing app.
Ey ey ey!
We're among the four percent of companies in Finland with AAA credit rating - the highest possible. A rating we have kept ever since.
Putting the business in business lunch
Gambit Lunch is launched for business restaurants. The app makes ordering lunch a breeze for everyone.
Augmented Reality
We release our first Augmented Reality app. A Christmas calendar for the city of Kristiinankaupunki.
A tree's best friend
The City of Vaasa starts using Gambit Docs, our document management app, saving them three tonnes of paper annually.
Barcelona... again!
This time during the World Mobile Congress we develop the first responsive version of our own site. And watch some real football - ¡El Clásico!
Electric moment
We expand our business to the web and launch our first client website - energy company Herrfors.
Welcome to Helsinki
Lönnrotinkatu in central Helsinki is the location of our first office in the capital.
Christmas in October
The "Christmas by the sea" project, with Augmented Reality by Gambit, is named one of the top projects funded by the European Union.
New digs
We relocate our Vaasa office to Runsoria Business Park and quickly start filling up the place with new developers.
Home shopping
Gambit develops and launches a series of state of the art web shops with built-in ERP integration.
Champagne!
Thanks to our growth and teamwork we are selected "New entrepreneurs of the year" in the Vaasa region.
KasvuOpen finalists
We are picked as one of the finalists at Kasvu Open - a competition for growing companies in Finland - among almost 350 competitors.
Lunch is served, animals
Our web app Gambit Fodder takes fodder deliveries for the farming industry into the 21st century.
Activate the activation sequence
The entire staff gets activity trackers from Polar to make 2015 a more active year.
Ready for the summer
Our own backyard was getting a bit dated so we revamped gambitgroup.fi. New features include this very timeline!
No more compact living
We needed more space for developers and video games; luckily we found it in the same building.
A beautiful mind?
When we map out our business strategy – we do it on the walls of a pirate themed hotel room.
Party time
Together with friends, family and customers we celebrated our fifth anniversary. Like any five year old we obviously wanted to party with candy and shiny balloons.
It's just a little Slush
We enjoy a big dose of inspiration and nerdiness at Slush 2016 in Helsinki.
EnergyWeek
EnergyWeek 2017 in Vaasa gave us an opportunity to speak about the future of cybersecurity.
Spoiling ourselves
We took the whole team out of office for a couple of days of research and development. Plus a bit of fun of course.
Game on!
Together with Valakia we made a sweet little game for Vaasan Sähkö which will be playable at a different fairs around Finland.
Night of the living nerds
We don't mind playing a bit of dress-up for Halloween.
In good company
Only 0.3 percent of all Finnish companies have a credit rating of AAA for five years in a row. We are now one of them. Hence the need for some cake.
Coding is for everyone
Together with Makerspace YA we arrange a coding camp for young girls to help raise the interest in coding.
...and today?
You give us a call, we start working on some sweet project together and change the world forever. Your move.
