MUMBAI: Check, mate, and market ready! Fyers, India’s tech-driven brokerage and investment platform, has announced a strategic move of its own, becoming the title sponsor of the American Gambits, one of the most dynamic franchises in the Global Chess League.
The three-year partnership brings together two worlds that thrive on foresight, discipline, and data-driven precision. The announcement, held in Bengaluru, also marked the unveiling of the team’s official jersey, in the presence of American Gambits co-owner Prachura PP; Fyers co-founder and CEO Tejas Khoday; and Fyers SVP and marketing head Lucky Saini.
“Fyers embodies the same spirit that drives the American Gambits: strategic thinking, precision, and bold decision-making under pressure,” said Prachura PP. “This partnership is not just about sponsorship, but about shaping chess into a modern, data-driven, aspirational sport.”
A chess enthusiast himself, Tejas Khoday drew parallels between the game and investing. “Every move in chess mirrors the mindset needed in trading, thinking ahead, assessing risk, and staying calm under pressure. This partnership celebrates that shared discipline and strategic intelligence,” he said.
Adding to that, Lucky Saini noted, “Both chess and investing reward focus, timing, and calculated risk-taking. Through this partnership, we aim to inspire people to think strategically, both on the board and in the markets.”
Team co-owner and cricketer R Ashwin welcomed Fyers to the Gambits family, calling the association “a step toward building a robust and inspiring ecosystem for the sport.”
The Global Chess League returns for its third season in Mumbai from 13 to 24 December 2025, and with Fyers joining the Gambits, the game is about to get even more strategic, both on and off the board.
