Veikkaus Renews its Betting and Online Casino Operations
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Veikkaus’ active preparation towards the new gambling system, which will launch in 2027, continues.
As part of the new strategy, Veikkaus held change negotiations in the Betting and Online Casino operations in the autumn. The change negotiation process has now been completed. Following the change negotiations, 14 employment relationships ended and 19 Veikkaus employees underwent significant changes in their employment relationships.
“We had to make decisions that were painful from a human perspective, but they are necessary for the future of the company. I would like to thank those who will no longer be with us for their hard work,” said Business Director Jarkko Nordlund.
According to Nordlund, Veikkaus is now creating a new organizational structure that will prepare the company for the coming years.
“Digitalization is also strongly driving our industry. International competition and the pace of development are really fierce. Veikkaus has decades of fine traditions and a lot of good expertise as a company. Alongside these, we now need the kind of professionalism that will enable us to serve our customers even better and more individually.”
The company is recruiting dozens of new digital channel and betting professionals over the coming year.
“We need more expertise for Veikkaus that will make us even stronger and more competitive in the new market situation. We are also looking beyond Finland’s borders. According to current estimates, more than 30 new positions will open by next summer. We want to be strong, growing and profitable in the future,” Nordlund said.
The Parliament intends to have the new Gambling Act passed by the end of 2025. When the law comes into force, it will open up the opportunity for other gambling companies, in addition to Veikkaus, to apply for, for example, sports betting and online casino licenses in the Finnish market. According to the current estimate, other gambling companies could also start operating with a license in Finland during 2027.
Lottery games, cardboard tickets and physical slot machines will remain exclusive to Veikkaus in the future.

Gainr.ai today announced the acquisition of JanusDeFi, a research-led institutional DeFi infrastructure company specialising in AI-powered stablecoin engineering and tokenomics design. The move brings the JanusDeFi team, led by Dr Stylianos Kampakis, one of the earliest academic researchers in tokenomics, into the Gainr ecosystem as part of its expanding decentralised finance architecture.
The acquisition strengthens Gainr’s technical and research capabilities, integrates JanusDeFi’s AI-driven Stablecoin Factory into the Gainr Protocol, and supports the Gainr token pre-sale in early 2026.
Theo Koumis, Founder and CEO of Gainr.ai, commented: “We’re delighted to welcome Dr Kampakis and the JanusDeFi team into Gainr. Their expertise in institutional tokenomics and AI-based stablecoin systems perfectly complements our mission to create a smarter, more transparent, and data-led financial ecosystem. This acquisition accelerates our ability to deliver innovative, compliant, and sustainable solutions for decentralised finance.”
Dr Stylianos Kampakis, CEO of JanusDeFi, added: “Joining Gainr allows us to scale our vision faster and with greater impact. We’ve spent years researching how AI can optimise financial systems, from stablecoin mechanisms to governance modelling. Within the Gainr ecosystem, those ideas can now move from lab to market. It’s a natural alignment of innovation, trust, and long-term purpose.”
Dr Kampakis is a PhD graduate from University College London, MSc from the University of Edinburgh, and advisor to the London Business School’s Data Science Department and will continue to lead on AI tokenomics strategy and institutional integration within Gainr’s expanded R&D division.
