Throwback to September, when our People Team came together from all corners of the world for an unforgettable two-day retreat at Nuuksio National Park! ???? Surrounded by Finland’s stunning natural landscapes, the team gathered to connect, reflect, and recharge. From early morning yoga sessions to lively orienteering adventures, the group embraced every moment—plus a classic Finnish sauna experience, of course. The agenda? A powerful mix of workshops and discussions around RELEX’s strategic vision, culture retention, and even tapping into the value of emotions as insights. It wasn’t just about the work, though. Bonding in the heart of nature brought everyone closer, inspiring fresh ideas and laying out exciting plans for the years ahead.? Thank you, everyone, for making the time special! #BeRELEX #LifeAtRELEX #PeopleDays?

Finest ideas are born out of collaboration ???? In late October, we joined the FinEst ESG?Challenge with Fiskars Group, Kuusakoski Recycling, and Puuni Oy, hosted by KPMG Finland, to come up with solutions to real-life ESG opportunities. The event brought together organizations representing different parts of the value chain, KPMG experts, and sustainability students from Finland and Estonia. The jury had the positive problem of choosing one winning team, so two teams with similar approaches were declared winners. Congratulations to these two and many thanks to everyone who joined to brainstorm over such an important topic! #ESGChallenge #SupplyChain #Sustainability?KPMG Anna Hiltunen

?? Perfection is the enemy of progress – this applies to using AI to make sense of data, too. Laurence Brenig-Jones, VP of Product Strategy and Marketing at RELEX, argues in this “Use AI to make messy datasets useful, not perfect” blog that getting data you can use is more important than getting perfect data. Your data record will never be flawless, but the right AI approaches help you refine, trust, read, and act on that data. A pragmatic approach uses AI to accommodate data gaps, errors, and inconsistencies and achieve high – and operative – data quality standards, maximizing accuracy and delivering timely, real-world benefits.

We share insights on how Demand Sensing effectively addresses fast changing demand patterns, positioning it as a critical tool for maintaining smooth and responsive operations. #RELEXTalks is hosted by Casey McSherry.
