Hurja Solutions Oy is broadening its ownership base

Artificial intelligence has transformed the way businesses operate by speeding up decision-making, streamlining processes and automating tasks that previously required human labor. There are more ready-made AI applications available than ever before, and these enable businesses to adopt AI quickly and cost-effectively.

But how far do these tools go without custom application development? Every company has its own needs and systems, and no off-the-shelf AI application can perfectly accommodate all business processes. Here, we’ll look at a few AI applications and their use cases – and consider when a custom AI solution might deliver even greater benefits.

Employees are the key to growth

One of Hurja Solutions Oy’s strategic choices is to be the best place to work for its employees, which Hurja believes is the key to growth.

Over the past year, the company has implemented numerous changes to both its organizational structure and its operations. Over the course of the year, a group structure has been established to support our objectives, in-house product development has been scaled back, and resources have been channeled into other areas of key importance for the future. Focusing on our core business – namely, software development for client projects – is the best way to strengthen Hurja. Our in-house expertise enables both our own success and that of our clients. This is also supported by the historic decision to broaden Hurja’s ownership base.

The aim of all the measures taken is to promote the company’s profitable growth, in line with Hurja’s strategy.

Hurja Solutions Oy carried out a private placement at the end of August and beginning of September, as a result of which the company has gained five new shareholders from among its own employees.

The new shareholders have long and distinguished careers behind them, by Hurja’s standards. Following the share issue, they will collectively hold 10 percent of the operating company’s share capital. The founding shareholders, Vili Härkönen, Jarno Airaksinen and Petteri Karppinen, will continue to hold 90 percent of the share capital of Hurja Solutions Oy.
