Looking Ahead: Our Vision for 2025-2026

Q: What is your vision for the future, and how will Process Genius continue to advance in the coming years?

Jani Akkila: For 2025-2026, our focus is clear: to create a unified, transparent, and dynamic ecosystem for factory operations and smarter decision-making. We call it ”Unified Clarity, Empowered Decisions.” I would name 3 main directions to focus on:

1. Unified Information Hub: We want to build a central platform where all critical factory and operational data can be displayed in real-time. This hub will give everyone—from floor workers to stakeholders—a clear view of the entire value chain.
2. Big Picture with Deep Dive Capabilities: Our digital twin technology will take things to the next level, creating a virtual representation of the factory. This allows predictive analytics, optimization, and better planning, so our customers can see both the big picture and zoom in on the details.
3. Enhanced Digital Twin Integration: By leveraging AI and machine learning, we’ll continue to push the boundaries of predictive maintenance and process optimization. Our goal is to ensure that every operation runs smoothly and efficiently, delivering maximum value to our customers.

This vision builds on everything we’ve learned so far and sets the stage for even more innovation and impact in the future.

Q: Finally, is there anything you’d like to say to the team, partners, or customers as we wrap up this year?
