    Rickard Westlund
    My journey with Ropo has been great and these four years have flown by. Ropo has a strong service concept, an exceptional culture and still much to achieve. For me it is a desired change to step aside from the CEO role and focus on driving Ropo to its full potential as a member of the Board. I´m very pleased that our Board of Directors found an experienced leader for the next steps of Ropo’s growth journey. A warm welcome to Rickard.
    Artti Aurasmaa
    I have been acting as advisor to the Ropo Capital’s management and Board of Directors since Adelis became Ropo Capital’s main owner in 2019. Getting back into the industry and developing it with Ropo Capital's proprietary technology feels both exciting and stimulating.
