The Software Finland Association is a unique and influential community within the Finnish software industry. The network includes over 600 software companies and their leaders. The association empower its members to grow, flourish, and excel in the global market. “Growing and successful Finnish software companies are at the core of Software Finland’s operations. It is extremely important to us that our partners are able to support software companies at different stages of their life cycle and in international business. Software companies typically have special needs regarding expertise, such as SaaS agreements in an international context or intellectual property matters, but also needs that arise as the company grows, such as employment law, personnel-related questions, corporate and tax structures, and the constant stream of mandatory regulation from the EU. In addition, from the perspective of entrepreneurs and owners, everything related to mergers and acquisitions (M&A) is critical expertise—for many, it is a once or twice in a lifetime situation that must be done right the first time. Hannes Snellman is a leading expert in this field, which is why we are excited to start our partnership with them”, says Rasmus Roiha, CEO of Software Finland. “At Hannes Snellman, we are proud to serve as Growth Partner for Software Finland, supporting the software and digital services industry with strategic legal insight and deep sectoral expertise. In a landscape shaped by rapid innovation, evolving regulation, and global competition, law is not just a safeguard—it’s a growth enabler. From data protection and intellectual property to AI governance and contracting, legal frameworks are the backbone of trust, scalability, value creation, and resilience in the digital economy. We help software companies navigate complexity, seize opportunity, and build sustainable, compliant businesses that thrive in Finland and beyond”, says Partner Jesper Nevalainen from Hannes Snellman’s IP & Technology Team.
