SweepCasinos Founder: Simon Gramstad

Simon Gramstad is the kind of founder whose fingerprints are on everything — even if you don’t always see them. From shaping big-picture strategy to fine-tuning the smallest tech detail, he’s constantly connecting dots, spotting patterns, and making sure things run smoother than they did yesterday. He’s been glued to a computer since the 90s (by choice), and somewhere along the way, that turned into a lifelong habit of solving problems with technology.

Whether he’s talking to partners, optimizing user flows, or experimenting with tools that make the site better, Simon’s approach is always the same: make it faster, make it simpler, make it make sense.

If there’s a better way to do something, I’ll probably find it by accident while trying to fix something else.
