New white paper: Software defines premium — the 7 Pillars

History

From Volvo Penta's engines to mission-critical platforms.

  1. 1999

    Founded in Gothenburg as Newmad Technologies — research and consulting on next-generation mobile IT terminals, building telematics and connected products around Volvo Penta's marine engines.

  2. 2006

    Rebranded to Diadrom and made diagnostics — begun on Volvo Penta's engines in 1999 — the company's single discipline.

  3. 2007

    Listed under the ticker DIAH. Today traded on Nordic Growth Market, NGM Nordic SME.

  4. 2012

    First defence programme enters service. Diagnostics discipline meets platforms with decades-long service lives.

  5. 2014

    Diadrom diagnostics running in serial-production vehicles — today more than 250,000 of them.

  6. 2024

    Viktor Eliasson becomes CEO, intensifying the focus on the product business.

  7. Today

    Diagnostics software and expert services for automotive, defence, security, industrial and public-transport platforms.

Core values

Four words we actually use.

Direct rather than diplomatic. Specific rather than smooth. We would rather tell you a thing will not work than be easy to deal with. The values below aren't wall decoration — they're how engagements run.

  1. 01

    People

    The engineer who builds it is the one you talk to. No account layer in between.

  2. 02

    Engagement

    The 'getting things done' attitude our customers keep mentioning. We care about the outcome, not the hours.

  3. 03

    Flexibility

    One specialist, a complete team, or a bounded delivery — the engagement adapts to your programme, not the other way around.

  4. 04

    Trust

    Earned over 27 years in programmes where failure is not an option — and kept by saying no when something won't work.

Our people

Our experts are everything we've got.

Diagnostics is a people business — the software is only as good as the engineers behind it. In their own words, translated from Swedish and shortened:

“I feel appreciated as an employee, and trusted by Diadrom when I'm out on assignment.”
Ekaterina — Business Analyst14 years at Diadrom
“If you find something interesting, or good colleagues, on an assignment you can get stuck for a while. Which is what happened on my latest one.”
Lars — Software Developer27 years at Diadrom
Jonas Hellberg, Head of Product Development at Diadrom
“I really think Diadrom is open to letting people grow in the direction they want. I'm proof of that: I showed an early interest in project management, and the company gave me the opportunity to do exactly that. Diadrom has genuinely furthered my career, and I keep growing in my work.”
Jonas Hellberg — Head of Product Development13 years at Diadrom
“The thing I admire the most about Diadrom is their work culture, which is not only diverse but super inclusive. One never feels stuck and will always have the sense of freedom to grow professionally at their own pace. … And it goes without saying, how much I appreciate being welcomed here, rejoining after several years.”
