Since its founding in 2000, Y Soft has been on a mission to help businesses of all sizes build better ways of working with cutting-edge technology.
On 31 August, Y Soft Corporation reached its 25th anniversary. Founded in 2000 by Vaclav Muchna and Martin di Martini as part of a student project at Masaryk University in Brno, the company started as a Czech-based IT services startup. Over the years, Y Soft has expanded globally.
“I’m proud that we can truly provide tangible value to millions of people out there in the offices, even in an area as mundane as print,” said Martin di Martini, Chief Information Officer and Co-founder.
Today, Y Soft serves 38% of Fortune 500 companies, more than 31,000 customers across +190 countries, and millions of everyday users.
To mark this anniversary milestone and the achievements along the way, the company is planning an internal anniversary event across offices through September.
Y Soft’s journey is one distinguished by its persistent focus on growth and innovation, especially in the Czech Republic. By inspiring other companies through its international growth and supporting the Czech Entrepreneur of the Year awards, Y Soft continuously contributes to the development of the IT ecosystem, not only in the Brno region but across the entire country.
The impact that Y Soft aims to have, locally in Czech Republic and globally, serves as a guidepost for the crucial partnerships the company has developed over the years. For this milestone, Y Soft said it is proud to celebrate shared successes achieved by continuous and deep-rooted partnerships worldwide.
“Happy 25th anniversary to our long-standing partner, Y Soft! Over the many years of working together, our partnership has grown into a strong and strategic collaboration, enabling Konica Minolta to provide customers with advanced cloud and print management solutions. It’s been a pleasure to see our joint efforts bring tangible benefits to businesses worldwide. Here’s to the next chapter of shared success,” said Torben Mowka, Manager Office Product Management, Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe.
To celebrate the anniversary, Y Soft aims to spotlight a core success ingredient in its 25 years of business, the power of building lasting bonds between colleagues, friends, partners … and co-founders.
“For some weird reason, even after 25 years of working together, Vaclav and I still have an outstanding business and personal relation (even though I was taught as a kid that business and friendship don’t mix up well)”, said Martin di Martini.
“On behalf of Konica Minolta, I warmly congratulate Y Soft on reaching this 25-year milestone. Our partnership with Y Soft has been an important pillar in delivering innovation and value to our customers. The trust and collaboration we’ve built over the years stand as a testament to our shared vision for the future of digital workplace solutions. We are proud to celebrate this anniversary with you and look forward to many more years of partnership,” said Olaf Lorenz, Head of International Marketing & General Manager Brand Experience Division, Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe.
