GGA5 - Global Gaming Authority 5

History of GGA5
Founded in 2020 - Bangalore, India
GGA5 was established in early 2020 by a group of Indian technology and fintech professionals who recognized a growing need for independent standards, transparency, and trustworthy evaluation within the global online gaming industry.
The founding team consisted of:
- Rahul Menon - cybersecurity engineer with experience in payment systems architecture for major fintech companies in Bangalore.
- Anish Varma - data analyst and risk-modeling specialist, graduate of IIT Delhi.
- Sanjit Datta - igaming regulatory expert who previously worked in compliance consulting across Singapore and Mumbai.
- Pradeep Ghosh - senior software architect focused on high-load, scalable systems.
- Kavita Rao - compliance and audit specialist, formerly head of regulatory oversight at a leading Indian tech corporation.
These five founders shared one idea: to create Asia’s first independent authority dedicated to establishing transparency, fairness, and reliability across the global online gaming ecosystem.
The number 5 in GGA5 - Global Gaming Authority 5 represents the five original founders and the core values they built the organization upon.
