TeliaSonera to acquire DataInfo

TeliaSonera AB increases its holding in DataInfo Oy to 100 percent from 43.7.
DataInfo allows TeliaSonera to offer small and medium-sized enterprise customers
in Finland new ways to purchase the IT and communications solutions they need as
ready-made service entities. The parties have agreed not to disclose the value
of the transaction.

According to the agreement concluded today, TeliaSonera Finland Oyj increases
its holding in DataInfo Oy to 100 percent from 43.7 percent by acquiring the
remaining shares in the company.

TeliaSonera is focusing more strongly on small and medium-sized enterprise
customers. DataInfo allows TeliaSonera to offer them new ways to purchase IT and
communications solutions as easy-to-use service entities.

“Companies' demand for service-based, easy-to-use and easy-to-buy entities is
growing, and we see significant growth potential in this software-as-a-service,
or SaaS, business in our home markets”, says Juho Lipsanen, President and head
of TeliaSonera's business area Integrated Enterprise Services. ”The national and
local competence of the DataInfo chain is a strength that we wish to support and
utilize more broadly.”
To the DataInfo chain, deeper cooperation with TeliaSonera represents additional
resources and an opportunity to both reach new customers and serve the present
customers more comprehensively. 

“As part of TeliaSonera, the DataInfo Solutions chain will be the leading
national provider of total communications and IT solutions for SMEs in Finland.
Our goal is to help companies to improve their efficiency and productivity by
means of service-based solutions,” says Jorma Maaninka, Chairman of the Board of
Directors of DataInfo Oy and head of TeliaSonera's SME business in Finland.
