Datapartner Oy has received an honorable mention in the Nylland Company of the Year competition.
The decision was made by a jury consisting of representatives of, among others, Nyland’s and Eastern Nyland’s associations, Nyland’s business owners and the ELY centre.
Datapartner was founded in 1987 and has its office at Svenska Gården GRAND in Borgå.
– We started by doing calculations and business planning on assignment. Later we went in for our own software products, says the company’s CEO Jens Westerbladh .
The company is a leading supplier of software, consulting services and training in financial planning. The jury thought that the company is a good example of innovative Finnish ICT know-how that, despite a narrow application area, has managed well in the international market.
– We are a leader in software for investment assessment. About half of our turnover is exports. Internationally, there is not much difference in how to calculate the profitability of investments. The company has 7 employees in Borgå. – But in addition, we have around thirty who work as local agents or other collaboration partners in different parts of the world, says Westerbladh.
Other awardees in the Nyland company of the year are Chiller Oy, which develops heating and cooling solutions, and Smartum Oy, which created the exercise voucher.
