Ho Chi Minh City, September 2025: Gradion marked its 10-year anniversary, reflecting on a decade of disciplined growth and shared execution.
The milestone recognizes progress. It also reinforces direction.
Since its founding, Gradion has scaled through engineering capability, structured governance, and long-term partnerships. Behind that progress stand the people who built and operated the systems.
As Founder Lars Jankowfsky stated:
Gradion marks its 10-year anniversary, reflecting on disciplined growth, people-driven execution, and strengthened governance. The milestone reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to innovation, trust, and scalable global operations.
From long-standing team members to contributors at critical stages, and alumni who have since continued their careers elsewhere, each has shaped the company’s trajectory.

A decade of execution
The anniversary program combined reflection with forward planning.
Key moments included:
- A retrospective video revisiting Gradion’s early stages
- A roundtable discussion on the next phase of growth
- Recognition of recent operational achievements
Highlights:
- Awards honoring teams advancing AI innovation during the company Hackathon
- A company-wide recognition of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, reinforcing security governance
- A coordinated global toast connecting colleagues across regions, including alumni
The focus was continuity. What has been built must now be strengthened.

Looking ahead with discipline
Lars reflected on the next chapter:
“Ten years are behind us, but the next ten will be even more exciting. Whatever we’ve built so far, we can always do better.”
The message is clear. Past performance does not reduce future responsibility.
Gradion’s next phase centers on:
- Advancing technical capability
- Strengthening trust and governance
- Investing in people and long-term partnerships
Ten years establish foundation. The next decade defines scale.
