Newsletter: August 2025 - ISO20022 is flying

Newsletter | August 2025

Hi there,

It’s end of summer and time to start new projects and pack our bags. Biggest event for us in the Autumn is SIBOS. This year, you can visit us at our SIBOS booth and try another great Finnish product, Napue GIN. Join us on Monday September 29th at 16.00 at booth DISS30.
