Successful collaboration in the Nordics and Germany forms foundation for accelerating digital transformation in food and beverage, distribution, manufacturing and fashion industries Infor, a global leader in industry-specific cloud software, and Columbus, a leading company in digital transformation, announce a strategic partnership in the Benelux region. Building on a proven track record of success in the United States, Northern Europe and Germany, this collaboration aims to drive business value in the food and beverage, distribution, manufacturing, fashion and retail sectors.

Columbus delivered a solid start to 2025, driven by improved earnings, confirming the robustness of the company’s strategy and business model. Despite a slight decline in revenue, the company achieved a 32% improvement in EBITDA and significantly strengthened its profitability, increasing the EBITDA margin to 10.7% compared to 7.9% in Q1 2024, adjusted for the extraordinary gain of DKK 20m from the M3CS legal case.

Columbus continues its growth journey in Sweden with three strategic hires, aimed at accelerating the development of its Data & AI business area and People support function. By welcoming Susanna Salwén as the new People Director in Sweden, Anna Sandell as the new Head of Data & AI in Sweden, and Jens Noring as Sales Manager for Data & AI Sweden, Columbus reinforces its leadership in the digital transformation of Swedish industry and commerce.

Columbus continued its positive momentum in 2024 with a revenue growth of 8% to DKK 1,659m and a 30% increase in EBITDA to DKK 153m. The decline in the Swedish and Norwegian markets was more than compensated for in the Danish and English markets, and with a sharpened strategic focus and continued strengthened cash flow, Columbus is well-positioned for the future.

Medius, a global supplier of cloud-based source-to-pay solutions, has the pleasure of announcing Columbus, an IT services and consulting company, the 2024 Medius Partner of the Year.
