UK technology publication TechRound interviewed Viran founder Aaro Angerpuro on 22 September 2026.
The interview covers the problem Viran was built to solve. Public procurement is fragmented across thousands of portals, countries and languages, and qualified suppliers lose contracts they never knew existed:
"A company can be perfectly qualified for a multimillion-euro contract and never see it because it was published in the wrong portal, country or language."
Discovery came first
The interview also describes the moment that shaped Viran's direction:
"Realising that discovery itself was a much larger problem than we had assumed. We originally thought companies mainly struggled with analysing tenders and preparing bids. Once we started working with international suppliers, we kept seeing the same thing: they were missing relevant opportunities entirely."
That is why Viran monitors more than 200,000 new public-sector opportunities every week and matches them to what each supplier can actually win.
Built to be trusted
Viran's customers range from high-growth technology companies and manufacturers to listed corporations. Earning their trust means pairing AI with structured data and deterministic validation, with every assessment traceable to the official notice and the procurement documents behind it.
