Welcome
Gambit is destined to be intellectual playground
for all those in the gaming, gambling and gamebling industries.
Initiated by Cass Business School's Executive MBA alumni, Gareth Wong, founder of GamBond®, our
aim is to provide a space for networking, mental stimulation and
exchange of views on an industry that’s highly innovative, always
controversial yet gaining further legitimacy and respects everyday.
Gambit already attract interest from around the
globe and we are passionate about creating an eclectic mix of business,
legal and technology professions with an interest in debating industry
trends and developments.
Our mission is to bring value to the sector, and
our fees are mainly to cover our cost. Gambit is unique and will
continuously innovate and lead by example by spotting trends,
pioneering new formats and focus on the specific needs of our sector.
Gambit is the chosen network & platform for
people that want the best our sector has to offer.
A great opportunity to get in on the ‘ground
floor’ is to attend our future public events.
We also have the Gambit Leadership Forum, which is
an invitation only series of closed door discussion of issues that
matter most for Chairman/CEOs/Directors/Owners of major firms, and
governments from around the world.

“Gareth is a very good friend and business
colleague of mine. His unique and profound understanding of networking
has been a big inspiration to me and has influenced the way I conduct
my own business. Over the years I have come to admire the way he has
managed to stay helpful to me as well as other industry people sharing
good advices and key insights about the gaming industry. For instance,
he has established an open forum called The Gambit where key industry
people meet to discuss topics about the gaming industry. If you get the
