Juho Niemi is Co-Founder and CEO of CRACI Corporation Oy, a Helsinki-based cybersecurity startup automating software supply chain security and compliance under the EU Cyber Resilience Act. He is recognized for tackling what he calls the 'thought to be impossible' challenges in software supply chain visibility and security.

Juho studied at Aalto University and brings a strong technical foundation to the cybersecurity and compliance space, co-founding CRACI in 2025 alongside Dennis Marttinen, Jaakko Siren, and Petteri Pulkkinen.

Juho champions the belief that security should never slow down innovation, driving CRACI's mission to turn complex EU regulatory compliance into an automated, seamless competitive advantage for software companies. He has been vocal that manual compliance approaches are no longer viable given the pace of modern software development.

Under Juho's leadership, CRACI secured a EUR 1.4 million pre-seed round led by Lifeline Ventures, with participation from First Fellow Partners and Wave Ventures, and was selected as part of the first batch at Founders House Helsinki. The company scaled from 4 co-founders to a 13-person team within just 6 months of inception.

CRACI's platform targets over 600,000 European software companies facing EU Cyber Resilience Act mandates taking effect in 2026, with non-compliance penalties reaching up to EUR 15 million or 2.5% of global turnover. The company is building critical infrastructure to give software manufacturers provably complete visibility across their supply chains.
