We cherish our brands, and make them multichannel. We operate with efficiency, sharpen our business portfolio, and create a high performance culture.

Our strategy

We consist of two strong focused businesses, a growing European K12 Learning business and a market leading cross-media business in Finland, each a leader in their own fields. We aim to further grow our leading position in European K12 Learning and the profitability of our Finnish News & Entertainment business.

We are the leading European K12 learning company with a full portfolio of Learning products, platforms and services. We aim to grow by growing our market share, expanding our blended offering to capture increased revenue per student in the countries in which we operate and through M&A of content businesses. We create excellent open platforms and cooperate with all leading Learning Management Systems (LMS) players; we share the underlying technology across all our businesses and develop in an efficient way to also serve smaller markets.

In Media our focus is News & Feature, Entertainment and B2B marketing services in Finland

We create value through growing our News & Feature subscription business through (regional) autonomous increase in subscribers as well as highly synergetic bolt-on acquisitions. We have a strong customer focus to autonomously grow our business to gain scale in digital products while continuing to serve ‘print lovers’.
