"I am pleased to welcome Abizko Consulting to the HiQ family today, during my first week on the job. We are extremely impressed by how Abizko Consulting has managed to grow in terms of skills and the quality of their services over a relatively short period of time. I'm particularly pleased that our company cultures are such a good match, with employees enjoying time together both at work and outside working hours. We see that different interests connect people at both organizations,” says Samuel Skott, CEO of HiQ.

Abizko Consulting was founded in Stockholm in 2018. The company's expertise lies in system development, integration and infrastructure based on Microsoft technologies. The idea behind the company is that recruitment and the daily interplay between sales and delivery often can be made more efficient and improved. From the start, Abizko Consulting has succeeded in winning exciting contracts with customers such as Sandvik, KPA Pension, The Swedish Tax Agency, Lantmännen and many more.

"I am extremely proud and pleased to announce today that we are becoming part of HiQ and the fantastic family that it entails. When we were considering which companies we could imagine joining, HiQ topped the list. It is a perfect match. It is also an incredible opportunity for us and allows us to take the next step as a company. It equals even more opportunities for our employees. The value that HiQ provides to them is something that we would not have been able to offer ourselves", says Krister Skoog, Co-founder of Abizko Consulting.
