Since 2014, Australia-based Valta Technology Group has been automating finance and procurement processes through a blend of technology and consulting, with operations in Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

Jussi Karjalainen, Founder and CEO, shares Valta’s journey to AUD $5 million in annual revenue, its unique market positioning, and how the company aims to leverage e-invoicing mandates and incentives to drive both value for clients beyond compliance and Valta’s own growth.

We also delve into Valta’s AI-driven innovations, the challenges of bootstrapping a tech business, and why Malaysia is its fastest-growing market.
