President & CEO Olli-Pekka Salovaara to work temporarily in the US

The United States is Revenio's most important market area, accounting for over
40% of the Group's net sales. Revenio Group's President & CEO Olli-Pekka
Salovaara will be moving to work in their new location in Raleigh, North
Carolina, to further boost the Group's market position in the US. This temporary
move will have no effect on the Group organization or operating structure, nor
on Revenio's Head Office functions in Vantaa, Finland.

"The United States is the world's largest market for health technology. Through
our presence in this market area we will be able to better support our local
distribution network and our own organization, and make them even better. Icare
has currently 32 independent sales representatives in the US and we intend to
make this network even stronger. Local presence is important also in terms of
moving forward the FDA process. The most important reason for my moving to the
US is to build a personal relationship with the customer base, our distributors
and physicians in decision-making positions," says Mr Salovaara.

"Our objective is solid growth in health technology, and my move to the US
should result in growth and higher market share both in terms of existing and
future products and technologies," he continues.
