2025 – a year of continued growth, strengthened business and refined relationships

2025 was a year that clearly demonstrated the strength of our organization. In a market characterized by uncertainty, increased demands and rapid change, we continued to do what we do best: creating accurate matches between organizations with needs and consultants with the right skills.

Through deeper customer relationships, a growing consultant network and a consistent focus on quality, we took an even clearer position in the market. It is a year that reflects who we are – business-driven, relationship-focused and long-term.

When the right match makes a real difference

Our strategic work with both clients and consultants in finding solutions to challenging skills needs has never been more extensive than in 2025. Our role is about more than adding resources – it is about understanding businesses, contexts and people to create sustainable solutions to business-critical challenges.

Feedback from both clients and consultants shows that our presence, accessibility and understanding of the market are appreciated. In a time of increasing pace and complexity, the ability to quickly, but with precision, find the right solution has become increasingly important.

Stable growth in a changing market

Despite a challenging market situation, Upgraded People continued to develop during the year. We saw an increased demand for flexible skills solutions and for a partner who can act as an advisor, not just an intermediary.

The growth has been done with clear consideration. We have prioritized:

• long-term customer relationships
• a strong and quality-assured consulting network
• businesses where transparency and trust are at the center

By sticking to our business model and values, we have created stability, even when the surrounding conditions have changed.

The consultant network – our most important asset

Alongside our fantastic employees, one of our greatest strengths is the network of consultants who actively choose to collaborate with us. In 2025, the network has continued to grow, both in scope, depth and breadth, with specialist skills in several business and technology-related areas.

We see the consulting relationship as a partnership. This means clear communication, the right expectations and a shared responsibility for delivery. When consultants thrive and are given the right conditions, better business results are also created for our clients.

Trust from customers with high demands

During the year, we have continued to win new assignments and extend collaborations with organizations that place high demands on delivery, pace and quality. Our working method, with short decision-making paths and close dialogue, has made us a valued partner in both private and public contexts.

In 2025, Upgraded People has contributed expertise in assignments that have been crucial to our customers’ businesses – from change initiatives and system development to operational roles where the right person in the right place has been crucial.

An year to build on

When we sum up 2025, we see a year where relationships have been deepened, business has developed and trust has been created and strengthened. We have been awarded the title of Master Gazelle by Dagens Industri as we achieve gazelle status for the third year in a row. A recognition that reflects a business built on quality, consistency and long-term thinking.

With the same business focus, responsiveness, energy and commitment, we step into 2026, with a stable foundation, clear direction and continued
