Finnish Tivi Magazine: Nortal delivered strong results in 2025 – a shift that has required investments

In its article of our fiscal year 2025, Tivi covered our revenue growth of 15% and continuation to invest in AI capabilities, international expansion, and new technology practices. According to our founder and CEO Priit Alamäe, 2025 will be remembered as the year the technology industry moved from talking about AI to actually putting it into practice.

Alamäe commented: "This shift has required investments and significant changes in how we operate. We have been investing heavily in AI capability and workforce transformation and laying the foundations to scale in the upcoming years."

Harri Vepsäläinen, CEO of Nortal Finland, noted that our investments in AI capabilities, modern technologies, and mission-critical systems development are reflected in the Finnish market as well.

"Our clients increasingly expect solutions where technology shows up as faster delivery, better quality, and real business impact. Our AI-first model and deep expertise across technology and industries help us meet those expectations," Vepsäläinen commented.

The AI-first delivery is now our standard delivery model, enabling faster, higher-quality work on complex, mission-critical systems. We have set an industry-leading target of 70% AI-first company-wide delivery by the end of 2026.

Several acquisitions as part of our growth strategy

In 2025, we completed two strategic acquisitions that expanded our platform capabilities and global reach in Latin America and the Middle East and strengthened our position as the partner of choice for platform-led enterprise transformation.

In July, we acquired Nearsure, a U.S.-based technology solutions provider with talent across 18 Latin American countries. Nearsure brought deep expertise in enterprise platform delivery across Adobe, Microsoft, Salesforce, and ServiceNow, and accelerated the company's growth across the Americas. Nearsure was subsequently rebranded to Nortal by the end of 2025.

In October 2025, we acquired the Accela Middle East division, a cloud-based solutions provider for government with an established client base across the region, deepening Nortal's GovTech capabilities in the Middle East.

In May 2026, we simplified our market positioning by moving from a dual-brand approach to a unified group brand, bringing all capabilities under the Nortal name. As part of this transition, Pwrteams became fully integrated into Nortal, consolidating service offerings and delivery models under a single brand to provide clients with a more integrated experience.

We continue to invest heavily in expanding our defense and cybersecurity capabilities, reflecting growing demand for secure, resilient, and software-defined systems across NATO and allied countries.

In 2025, we strengthened our position in the sector by being selected as an approved supplier to NATO under the Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) framework and through participation in major European defense initiatives, including CITADEL Range and iMUGS2.

Strengthening our industrial IoT capabilities

Tivi also wrote about our acquisition of the industrial IoT consulting business of German company Isax GmbH & Co. KG.

The acquisition brings us the iSAX Industrial IoT expert team, client relationships, and the company's proprietary methods and tools. We will also become the primary integration partner for the Weasl platform, developed by Connected Worker Intelligence GmbH (CWI).
