Mpya Digital launches a new business area within AI
AI has shifted from a question of curiosity to a question of execution, and the path there looks different for each organisation. Mpya Digital is launching a new business area, Mpya Digital AI, to help clients with their AI journey.

For most companies, the question is no longer whether to use AI, but how.
The questions are now practical ones: where in the business AI genuinely adds value and how to bring a whole organisation along rather than a curious few.
Mpya Digital AI will address these challenges.
Robin Kling, one of the founders of Mpya Digital, is leading the new business area. With over a decade of tech consulting experience across various industries, he has had a front-row seat to how Swedish companies handle technology shifts.
– Leadership teams are already convinced AI matters. The hard part is making space to push it forward while keeping the business running, and that tradeoff is tough to prioritise from the inside, he says.
Beneath that bigger tradeoff sit the more concrete blockers: data governance, security and compliance, patchy data quality, and getting AI to fit the systems and processes a company already runs on.
Adoption is about people, not just tools
The pattern Robin sees most often is that AI adoption gets treated as a technology rollout when it is really a change management challenge.
– We help leadership teams understand the opportunities and risks that come with new tools and how to mitigate them, then roll them out to the wider organisation so usage spreads, he says.
August Axelsson, part of the new team, has seen what makes the difference between the initiatives that land and the ones that stall.
– When AI projects lose momentum, it is rarely the tools that hold things back. It’s usually about giving the organisation the focus it needs to actually follow through, he says.
So the first thing the team does with a new client is step back and look for where AI could make the biggest difference, before any tool is on the table.
– Where could we free up people for the work that really matters? Which decisions get made on gut feeling because no one has the time to dig in? Who is ready to use these tools, and who needs a bit more support to get there? Those are the questions we start with, August says.

Between business and tech
Mpya Digital AI brings together extensive consulting experience from both software engineering and management roles across various industries, from fast-moving tech companies to large enterprises and the public sector.
Consultants Erica Gavefalk, Filip Holmberg and August Axelsson join Robin in a group that is, by design, comfortable on both the technical and the business side of a problem.
– It is often not the person with AI in their title who drives the change, but the one who can stand between the business and the tech and speak both languages, August says.
AI tools will keep changing, and the questions clients bring will change with them.
Mpya Digital AI aims to help organisations move from scattered experiments and prototypes to AI that the whole organisation utilizes with confidence, with sensible safeguards in place along the way.
