Innovestor is proud to announce the successful exit of its investment in Sensire Oy (later “the company”). The company has been acquired by Main Capital Partners – a leading strategic investor in the software industry, to support its continued organic growth in Finland and beyond.
Sensire is a Finnish software vendor of HSEQ solutions with focus on medical and food safety. With more than two decades of experience in the HSEQ industry, Sensire has developed an industry-leading platform that encompasses temperature monitoring, task management, compliance, waste management, and document management, enabling its international client base to comply with regulatory requirements for medical and food safety.
“It has been a great joy to be a part of Sensire story and to see world class technology be developed and commercialized. With the support of Main Capital Partners, Sensire is able to boost its growth further and we wish all the best for JukkaPekka Asikainen and the whole of Sensire team for the exciting journey ahead.”
Petri Laine, Partner, Innovestor Ventures
The medical and food market is characterized by a complex web of regulations and guidelines, including EU-wide safety, hygiene, and traceability laws that govern the entire production chain. To meet the evolving needs of this industry, there is a growing demand for modern solutions that can digitize and automate workflows and tasks in medical and food management. Additionally, stakeholders are increasingly emphasizing quality, compliance, and environmental health and safety within the medical and food value chain. Sensire is well-positioned to address these challenges, providing comprehensive solutions that add significant customer value when implemented across departments and processes.
“We are excited to enter this partnership with Main Capital. We believe Main can support the company through a combination of best practices and lessons learned from having invested in over 150 software companies as well as finding smart acquisitions. We are very much looking forward towards rolling out the business internationally in this new phase of growth.”
