ALMA MEDIA’S AI INNOVATIONS RANK AMONG TOP THREE IN TWO CATEGORIES AT FINLAND’S AI GALA

Two AI-driven services developed by Alma Media have been recognised among the Top 3 in two categories at AI Finland’s prestigious AI Gala: Most Innovative AI Pilot of the Year and Data Project/Data Economy Innovation of the Year. 

In the Most Innovative AI Pilot category, Jobly Vibes earned a spot in the top three. Jobly Vibes introduces a groundbreaking way to apply for summer jobs: traditional job listings are transformed into short, AI-generated videos that job seekers can browse in a TikTok-style feed. Young job seekers increasingly prioritise personal preferences and workplace culture, and this format allows employers to showcase their environment in an authentic and engaging way. 

In the Data Project/Data Economy Innovation category, Asuntopuntari was named among the top three. Designed for the real estate and financial sectors, this advanced AI service consolidates key property attributes and sustainability data into a single platform, simplifying property evaluation and comparison. 

Both Jobly Vibes and Asuntopuntari were developed in close collaboration with customers. 

“Being recognised in two categories is a strong signal that we are on the right path in leveraging AI. This achievement reflects the agility of our teams and Alma’s ability to learn and innovate with data and AI,” says Tommi Raivisto, EVP and Chief Digital Officer at Alma Media. 

Alma Media has accelerated AI adoption through a company-wide AI program covering all employees and functions. Currently, the company is running around 100 AI projects across the organisation. 

“We have invested heavily in building employee expertise, and our focus is now shifting toward product development. Our goal is to create added value for customers by using new technologies responsibly and efficiently. We believe AI will also unlock new business opportunities over time,” says Antti Koivisto, Chief Technology Officer at Alma Media. 

The AI Gala brings together leading experts and celebrates AI pioneers in Finland. Winners will be announced at the AI Gala event on November 17, 2025.
