There are more and more operations that we carry out digitally: purchases, contracts, procedures, inquiries… Each of these processes is associated with a username and a password that we have to create first and then remember! Not to mention security and fraud. The Barcelona startup Gamium has created a solution that allows you to have a single universal and secure digital account to be able to use the same profile throughout the Internet.

Behind this breakthrough are two young 26-year-old brothers: Alejandro and Alberto Rosas. “Since we were very young we really liked technology and we were very good at mathematics,” recalls Alberto Rosas, who graduated in Electronic Engineering, and was the student who got the best grades from his class. Alejandro Rosas, for his part, studied Mathematics in the US. After finishing their respective university degrees, the brothers turned to learning “as much as possible” about areas such as artificial intelligence or blockchain (or chain of blocks) until their “entrepreneurial vein” led them to “try to do something on their own”.

At the age of 24, the Rosas assembled a team to create Didit, the universal digital identity that they have just launched through their startup Gamium. They recognize that the business part has cost them much more than the technological part: “We have hit ourselves many blows, but we have learned from our mistakes,” admits Alberto Rosas. There are also many business beatings that the partner of the Rosas brothers in Gamium, Roberto de Anquer, has hit, who before joining the project had undertaken 18 times.

Didit has involved a year of development and an investment of 1.5 million euros, achieved through a microfinancing campaign with tokens (digital tokens) and a contribution from Telefónica’s Wayra accelerator. Entrepreneurs are born with a global vocation, although they will first focus on the closest markets. His goal is for Didit “to be the standard for the whole world”, in the words of Alberto Rosas.

The Rosas brothers and Roberto de Anquer are not satisfied with Didit. A month ago, Gamium launched a YouTube of 3D experiences in alpha phase that they have named Genesis. “The definitive launch will not be until the end of the year”, advances Alejandro Rosas.

With headquarters in Barcelona and a subsidiary in Singapore, Gamium has a team of 29 people that continues to grow: “We are recruiting three people and we expect to reach one hundred employees in the coming years,” says Aberto Rosas.
