Data driven decision-making is an important aspect for the sustainable companies of tomorrow. I am happy to have the Solutive team onboard and are looking forward to continue building Cybercom’s succesful business in Finland together with our new colleagues”, says Niklas Flyborg, CEO of Cybercom Group.

“We are experiencing strong growth, and if we were to strive for the next growth leap alone, we would not be able to build new solutions for customers and expand our know-how at the same pace. By merging with Cybercom, we get a ready-made framework for growth, where we can evolve with great people,” says Seppo Maukonen of Solutive.

Behind the merger are the growing needs of the customers as well as significant synergy benefits to both companies. The service offerings complement each other. The companies already have joint customers, such as Valmet and the S Group.
