Message from our Founder and CEO

When I started the Corporater adventure in 2000, I was driven by a vision to create a software that would enable organizations to mirror their unique business processes and structures, and drive measurable business outcomes. My goal was to build a values-driven company that would not only redefine how business applications are built and used but also leverage its success to make a positive social impact.

Today, Corporater operates on a global scale and stands as the world’s leading Business Management Platform—a future-proof, agile, enterprise-grade software that enables organizations to create a digital twin of their organization, automate processes, and manage a wide range of GRC, performance management, strategy, and other business activities on a single platform. Our business-integrated solutions for Governance, Performance, Risk, and Compliance (GPRC) are trusted by top organizations worldwide, including Fortune Global 500 companies.

I firmly believe that our ongoing success is a result of upholding our company values—Ethics, Customer-Centricity, and Servant Leadership. These values express our shared beliefs and serve as the guiding principles for every action and decision we make. It’s through adherence to these values that we’ve been able to build trust with our customers and partners, and foster a culture of integrity, excellence, and collaboration.

Over the years, thanks to our achievements, we have been able to improve the quality of life of thousands of people in some of the most impoverished areas of the world. Our social impact initiatives include the installation of water purification systems, housing improvements, healthcare services, food distribution projects, and education programs.

As we look to the future, we remain dedicated to serving our valued customers with cutting-edge GPRC solutions, driving innovation in business technology, and making a difference in the lives of those in need. We invite you to join us on this journey, as together, we shape the future of business management and the world around us.

Thank you for considering Corporater as your partner in success.

The Corporater Story

The beginning

Our story begins in 2000 in Stavanger, Norway, with a young business enterpreneur with a passion for technology, innovation, and philanthropy: Tor Inge Vasshus.

After twelve years of working in the performance and finance domain at two large Norwegian companies, Tor Inge’s vision was to create a company that would:

  • Provide easy-to-use software that would enable organizations to drive business outcomes
  • Use its business gains for the betterment of the world

From a startup to a global enterprise

Corporater was formally founded in Stavanger, Norway, on April 28, 2000.

With a small team, the company developed the initial version of what would later become the Corporater Business Management Platform. At that time, Corporater primarily focused on empowering organizations with solutions for Performance Management, Balanced Scorecard, and Strategy Execution.

Over the following years, Corporater expanded its operations overseas, grew its customer base to include enterprise organizations, and broadened its offerings to include Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions. Today, Corporater operates from 12 offices worldwide, and its integrated solutions for Governance, Performance, Risk, and Compliance (GPRC) are trusted by top organizations around the globe.
