Futunio has built a strong business over the years, maintaining excellent relationships with its clients. They focus on helping their clients increase their efficiency with their software solutions, which is now more important than ever. Futunio has a clear vision for the future, and I look forward to taking the next steps in building an enduring software company with Heikki Kärki, who will remain its Managing Director. He will continue to run Futunio as an independent business unit, located in Vantaa.”
