Jukka Riivari, chief executive officer of Mirasys, said: "Mirasys has made pleasing progress during 2008. Our focus is clearer, which means our offer is better understood in the marketplace. The continued support of CapMan, one of the leading investment groups in the region, means we are in a good position to develop further and to take advantage of the expected industry consolidation. 2008 has been a turbulent year for the world, but the need to keep the world we live in as secure as possible has not diminished."
Alastair Hayfield market analyst at IMS Research said: "In its 2008 study on the EMEA Market for CCTV and Video Surveillance, IMS Research positioned Mirasys 6th in the market for open-platform network video management software in EMEA. IMS Research conducted further analysis on those companies who only sell video management software and not complete solutions. In this category IMS Research ranked Mirasys 3rd in EMEA and 5th in the same category worldwide."
