Wolfpack Digital's 10-Year Anniversary: Celebrating a Decade of Innovation

Happy New Year! 🥂

2024 ended with a very festive vibe ✨, and we entered 2025 in the same way!

Why? 

In December, we marked a significant milestone—celebrating a decade of excellence in app development, teamwork, growth, and bringing performance and beauty to the world through technology.

Officially, the Wolfpack Digital anniversary is 19 January, but we celebrated this achievement alongside our annual Christmas 🎄 gathering.

Over the past 10 years, our journey has been fueled by passion, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of innovation, making us one of the top app development agencies globally.

To properly celebrate this milestone, the whole team started a secret journey. Where? Let's discover together. 👀

A night in the beautiful and historical Bethlen Castle

We went on a magical journey to the heart of Transylvania, leading us to the stunning Bethlen Castle 🏰, which provided the perfect backdrop for a night filled with joy, history, and festivity. 🌟

We started our night with a guided tour exploring the castle’s history, and after, we had a grand feast fit for royalty. 🥩 We continued the evening by celebrating our team’s achievements that have defined the past decade. 

We went down memory lane, looking at old photos and reminiscing memories, and listened to heartfelt speeches from our co-CEOs,  Georgina (Gina) Lupu Florian and Adrian Florian, our CTO, Andi Nicolescu, and team members reflecting on our journey as a custom software development agency.

We enjoyed our traditional Christmas game - an exciting game in which we had to wrap and bring a few presents and roll the dice 🎲 to see if we could steal a gift. If we roll a six, we can steal a gift from the table or someone's hands. 🎁 The game brought out the usual laughs, and after, we received our Christmas & anniversary gifts.

As the clock struck midnight, we enjoyed a spectacular fireworks display and toasted for many more meaningful years together. 🍾🎆

Indeed, these are some anniversary highlights we won't forget soon! 😍

Founding and Early Years

In 2015, after returning to Cluj-Napoca from London, UK, where she graduated with a Master's program in Engineering with Business Management from King's College and worked as an iOS Developers & Designer, Gina Lupu decided to start Wolfpack Digital - a company born out of a vision to bring performance and beauty to the world through technology.

The company's name is inspired by Gina's surname, Lupu, which in English means "wolf". The wolf 🐺 is a symbol of performance, dedication, agility, teamwork, and playfulness - which is represented in all that we aim to be as a team.

What started as a small team of passionate developers and designers with a shared goal of creating innovative and user-friendly web & mobile apps has grown into a leading mobile app development company. From these beginnings, our team has expanded, bringing together experts in the industry to deliver exceptional web & mobile apps that stand out in a crowded market. Our journey from a startup to a renowned app development company is a testament to our dedication, creativity, and relentless pursuit of excellence. 🙌
