Who we are

Tanja

Tanja has solid expertise in enterprise development and a good understanding of the public financial instruments available for financing enterprise development. Her clients have been small and medium-sized enterprises of different sizes and ages, from a wide range of industries.

When developing a business, you need to be able to form a comprehensive picture of the current state and growth potential of the business being developed. Assessing the development capacity of a business through financial forecasts is a concrete way of evaluating the adequacy of the resources of the business in relation to the planned development measures.

Tanja has been part of the team developing the Simulo tools since 2020 and is very familiar with the structure of the tools. She was appointed CEO of the company in spring 2023.

Jani is highly skilled in working with companies in all industries, but due to his background, he specialises in the tourism sector. Over the years, he has been involved in starting, growing, rescuing and shutting down businesses, as well as assisting in ownership or generation changes. His expertise is therefore broad at all stages of the business life cycle.

Hanna has experience as a business coach and trainer, especially in the field of business valuation and ownership changes. Hanna has a particular interest in ownership changes as there is something really fascinating about them; the reason and the emotion, the challenge and the thrill. Finland needs entrepreneurship and successors for companies facing a change of ownership.
