New executive board to boost SolidComp’s growth

Kuopio-based SolidComp Oy strengthens its board with three external members. The primary goal of the new board is to further enhance the company’s broad-based expertise and thereby create the most favorable conditions possible for SolidComp’s profitable growth.

The new chairman of the board is Dr. Jorma Turunen, a Doctor of Technology, professor of practice, and professional board member. Turunen has extensive experience in the operational management of companies and organizations, as well as in board memberships and chair positions in growth companies.

Joining the board as a member is Master of Laws and eMBA Sonja London, who serves as Chief Legal Officer at TactoTek Oy. London has a long background in technology commercialization as well as in patent and licensing strategies. She is also an investor, advisor, and board member in software growth companies. She has been recognized by IAM Strategy 300 as one of the world’s leading IPR strategists.

Another new board member is Tarmo Tuominen, M.Sc., who has a long history of leadership positions and board memberships in the mining industry. His in-depth industry knowledge and understanding of its specific needs will bring clear added value to SolidComp’s industrial customer interface.

The current chairman of the board and one of the company’s founders, M.Sc. (Eng.) Tuomas Korhonen, will become vice chairman. Other founders — CEO Sándor Nagy and mechanical engineering engineer Juha Timonen — will continue on the board.

Chairman of the Board Jorma Turunen:

“I begin my role as chairman of the board of SolidComp Oy with humility and enthusiasm. I believe that external experts, together with the owners, can bring added value to the company’s growth story and best support the excellent young team led by Sándor. SolidComp possesses impressive and unique expertise and growth potential, which has been validated by its customers.”

CEO Sándor Nagy:

“The successful year 2022 provides SolidComp with excellent readiness to scale its business to the next level. The addition of experienced and well-connected board partners will support us young and eager solution developers as we take SolidComp on a strong path of growth and internationalization. Their support will help us turn many upcoming challenges into new opportunities.”

The new board began its term on January 1, 2023.
