The software industry weathered the storm of global recession well. It seems (and supported by recent research) that software companies are agile, resilient and eager to grow. 

Growth-oriented companies are actively picking up their business and upgrading their plans. We recently launched a Strategy and Board Initiative to further support small companies' ability to grow: we are connecting small firms with most senior advisors available. Read more at my blog or at Kasvufoorumi pages (in Finnish). Or check out the video summary of a workshop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSHN9h0vHHk

Focusing on the essentials and the strategy of the firm is even more critical as business is picking up. 

I am an entrepreneur, consultant and change agent with passion for software business. My company is R & D-Ware Oy.

These pages contain information about my background, papers and presentations, as well as more personal content (photos, music) on software business and life in general. You are welcome to browse around or participate in the blog discussions.
