About Hublet

Hublet is one of the most exciting tech companies to come out of Finland, but what’s our story, our principles and what drives us?

Our story

Hublet is one of the most exciting tech companies to come out of Finland, with a vision that started back in 2014. We recognised that tablets were becoming increasingly commonplace in the lives of many, but loanable versions that were accessible to everyone either didn’t exist, or the loaning experience was terrible for both the end user and the staff that had to manage them.

Our products might have changed a little over the last 8 years (see our original Docking Station to the right), but our business is now positioned to be both sustainable and agile, with product development, sales & marketing, manufacture and support all controlled in house. This allows us to deliver innovative products that are proven to last for years in what can often be challenging conditions.

Officially recognised for our growth

In 2021, we were delighted to be awarded an official growth certificate from Kauppalehti magazine based on our performance as a Finnish company. Kauppalehti awards these certificates to companies that have demonstrated an increase in revenue 10% faster than market rates.

Our principles

Our solution is primarily used by members of the public, whether that be in a library, school, museum, hospital or care home. With this mind, we have six design principles that help ensure the solution is accessible, secure and useable by people of all ages and abilities. Our products will always be…

Completely private

User data & history is erased once our tablets are returned to the Smart Docking Station.

Easy to use

Our user interfaces follow a simple, logical design that makes them easy to use for everyone.

Cost-efficient

The Hublet solution is affordable, delivers ROI and requires no additional IT services or support.

User focussed

Using user profiles, content can be curated by staff that is directly relevant to those using the devices.

Secure

Devices are locked to the local WiFi and require user identification to physically release them.

Well designed

We focus on a minimalist design that creates a timeless aesthetic that fits in all environments.

Our people

Hublet is a people-focussed business, we even have a name for our collective team “Hubletians”. We strive to make our work as pleasurable as it can be every day through involving every member of our team in any decisions that effect how we work, where we work and our overall business objectives.

We very much operate an open-door policy where we encourage everyone to talk openly and share their views as we firmly believe that getting problems on the table and working together to solve them is the right way to do business.

We also make sure we get the whole team together once per quarter to celebrate our successes and collectively work on areas of improvement – we always combine this with some light-hearted activities, good food and the occasional drink.

Our values

Humanity

We can feel free to express ourselves just the way we are. We do things together, supporting one another whenever necessary. Together, we can create a working environment that is both productive and fun in Hublet with distributors and end-users too.

Unique

There is no solution quite like Hublet, neither is there anyone like you. We believe in great individuals and personalities. Versatility makes our community richer, stronger and more understanding. Each of our customers is unique to us.

Best

At the end of the day, only the winners will be remembered. We aim to be the best in everything we do. Simply. The best professionals. The best team. The best employer. The best customer experience. We also encourage our customers to perform their best.

Learning

We want to keep learning new things, both by developing our skills and by sharing information with others. If we make mistakes, we are quick to learn from them. They are one of the most efficient learning tools. We want to learn and develop together with customers.

Equality

We respect each other in Hublet. We speak up whenever we observe or experience injustice. We understand the liabilities of our flat organisation and are able to take responsibility for making it work. At the point of service, we want to treat our customers fairly.

Trust

We have full confidence in ourselves and our abilities to solve any challenge. We want to encourage an open working environment where all issues can be dealt with in a constructive spirit inhouse and also with customers.
