HELSINKI May 9, 2023: Staria Oyj and Sisua Digital Oy signed an agreement that entered into force on May 1, 2023, through which Sisua Digital will acquire the Robotic Process Automation business of Staria.

Staria has redefined its strategy and as a result of this work, Staria has decided to divest RPA (Robotic Process Automation) business to Sisua Digital to better focus on being the navigator of growth for its clients in the finance management domain. With the transaction Staria’s RPA clients will become Sisua Digital’s clients. One of Staria’s RPA consultants will transfer working at Sisua Digital, otherwise the acquisition has no impact on Staria’s personnel.

"Our RPA team has done an outstanding work with revolutionizing the use of RPA and AI within financial services. I’m convinced that this acquisition will be the start of extensive co-operation, as both companies share a similar growth-mindset."

- Artti Aurasmaa, CEO, Staria Oyj

The transaction is part of Staria’s strategy, which is focused on offering services in over 40 countries with a unique one stop delivery model. Staria will continue to utilize RPA and AI for internal processes and reducing the manual work for clients. The companies will continue to co-operate closely to be the best automation process partner for their customers.

"It is important to Staria that our RPA clients are in good hands also in the future, and I am sure that as a pioneer in the RPA and automation business, Sisua Digital is the best possible partner for our clients. This acquisition serves as a starting point for future co-operation, which will enable us to offer even more efficient tools to support our customers' growth."

- Jani Jääskeläinen, CTO, Staria Oyj

The revenue of Sisua Digital, which started its automation operations in 2014, was 2.6 million euros in 2022. The company recently raised growth financing in a funding round and strengthened its capital structure with approximately 3 million euros in share issues. Sisua Digital operates in Finland, Vietnam and Chile and offers intelligent automation services from these countries also to South America, North America and the South-East Asia. International growth through acquisitions is an essential part of Sisua Digital's strategy, which the company aims to accelerate with the latest funding round. The business transaction between Staria and Sisua Digital speeds up this growth plan even more.

"Finland is an excellent home base for companies aiming for international growth, such as Sisua Digital and Staria. Focusing on their own areas of expertise enables these companies to provide their customers with high-quality service levels and sufficient resources to develop new service innovations."
