Data Respons has signed a contract of SEK 17 million with a large Swedish industrial company.

The contracts comprise R&D Services, Software development and Smarter Solutions embedded in the customers' industrial products. The deliveries will be carried out in 2018 and 2019.

- We notice that there is an increasing product development activity among our customers and that companies get more technology-driven in their strategy. Future products are becoming more intelligent and software-oriented, while ensuring that all devices are securely connected 24/7 at the same time.

The companies' development budgets increase because of the need to maintain and improve existing products in the portfolio, as well as making major investments in more modern and future-oriented technology platforms to keep up in the digitalization race. This creates a strong demand for data engineers and specialist companies that can assist the businesses with this transformation. The special thing happening right now is that it applies to almost all businesses and industries, "said Kenneth Ragnvaldsen, CEO of Data Respons.
