Ubitec Oy and Sakutek Oy, both part of WEST Invest Group, are merging into a single company. The new company will continue under the name Ubitec Oy starting from September 23, 2024.

Harto Viiala, CEO of WEST Invest Group, states that the merger of the two companies is a natural part of the family business’s development strategy.

“Our goal is to be a significant player in our chosen business areas. The merger aims to increase market share and expand operations geographically,” says Viiala.

Leo Nokelainen as CEO of the merged company

Leo Nokelainen will be the CEO of the merged company. Nokelainen has served as the CEO of Ubitec since the company was established in 2012.

“With this merger, we are taking a step forward. It feels great to be involved in developing the company, and I look forward to expanding our operations,” says Leo Nokelainen, one of the original founders of Ubitec.

With the merger of the companies, Sakutek Oy’s CEO Jarkko Pennanen will leave the company.

The services offered to customers are developing

The merger strengthens Ubitec’s position as a comprehensive industrial service provider. The existing business areas will be expanded with a new one: in addition to Projects and Services, a new Production business area will be established.

The merger enables closer cooperation between our different business areas, and it shows itself to customers first and foremost as improved services and broader geographical coverage. We will now be able to offer solutions more extensively with our own resources by continuously developing our services and processes in line with customer expectations,” says Nokelainen.
