History

The company was established by Phil Corbishley and Paul Banner with the intention of buying the assets of distressed telecommunications businesses, including those of Atlantic Telecom, in 2001. [3] It was floated on the Alternative Investment Market in 2014. [4]

Gamma acquired a telecommunications Dutch-based business, Dean One, in October 2018. [5] It then bought a Spanish-based communications service provider, Voz Telecom, in April 2020, [6] and it acquired a Lancashire-based business providing multiple communication tools in a single platform, Mission Labs, in March 2021. [7] After that it bought a German-based communications service provider, Placetel, in September 2024. [8] [9]

The company moved from the Alternative Investment Market to the main market of the London Stock Exchange in May 2025. [10] [11]

Operations

The network operator, RWG Mobile, uses SIM cards supplied by Gamma on its EE and Three networks. [12]
