As part of the agreement, employees who currently work on the contract in KMD will be transferred to Aeven. Employees in KMD's current supplier will also have the opportunity to follow along the delivery, all the while Aeven expects to recruit further in the coming year. By this, the next chapter of Aeven's growth strategy is beginning. CEO of Aeven, Henrik Bodskov, says: "We are incredibly proud that KMD sees us as the right partner to operate the infrastructure on which they drive their customers' digital solutions. We approach this big task with humility, but also a strong conviction that this will be a good partnership, where we develop the delivery together, while we in Aeven are taking responsibility for stable and secure operation. We are very much looking forward to bringing competencies from both camps into play to the benefit of both new and current customers as well as colleagues." Aeven is expanding its current organizational setup where the collaboration with KMD will be run. This means that even though it is a big task, it will not lead to changes in Aeven's current organization or the way in which the cooperation with Aeven's other customers takes place today. "We are significantly expanding our delivery muscle with our future colleagues, which of course will be part of Aeven's ecosystem with all that it entails in terms of knowledge sharing, development, and value creation - both for customers and colleagues," says Henrik Bodskov. CEO in KMD, Per Johansson, says: "We are very proud of our achievements in the Danish midrange infrastructure market, but we also recognize the importance of enhancing our services to continuously improve our capacity to provide value to both our customers and society. In order to enable these steps, we have chosen Aeven, to become our new midrange infrastructure service provider. We strongly believe Aeven is the right partner for us, and we are looking very much forward to the collaboration going forward." Due to the scope of the agreement, including the transfer of employees, it must now be approved by the Danish Competition Authority. It is expected that the transition from KMD's current setup can begin in the second half of 2024. |
