This year, Solve-X is celebrating an important milestone, 10 years of operation. This decade tells a story of vision, courage, learning, perseverance, and an exceptional team that grew from humble beginnings into a successful tech company with a presence both locally and internationally.
From first spark to first team
The roots of Solve-X trace back to a time before the company even existed,when founder Borut Jakovac was imagining a world where software could be built like Lego sets: piece by piece, flexibly and intelligently. This vision eventually became WARPIT, the very first product born from that idea.
By 2015, that vision matured into a company, Solve-X, launched by a small but fiercely passionate group of students. These early projects weren’t glamorous; they were built for survival, for learning. But even then, a bigger dream was taking shape: creating modular, event-driven systems based on trusted, universal standards.
Reflecting on those early days, Director Borut Jakovac shared:
“Even back then, inspired perhaps by the simplicity of Lego blocks, I was thinking about composable software architectures and closely watching every small and big digital revolution. A small group of students appeared, willing to believe in my idea — and in turn, they gave me hope that we could create something extraordinary together.”

Rapid growth and major milestones
Between 2020 and 2023, Solve-X entered a phase of intense development. The pandemic pushed the world even deeper into digital, and the economic climate demanded quick adaptation and the rollout of smart digital solutions. This brought new opportunities for the company.
It was during this period that our first major clients emerged — Avto Krka, Big Bang, and T2 — pushing the team beyond its comfort zone and helping shape higher-level technological solutions. Solve-X began developing its own products, investing in Kubernetes infrastructure, and gaining recognition in the public sector.
Borut reflects on this time:
“Those moments were valuable because they pushed us forward — beyond our comfort zone — and often helped us see the tech world in a new light, rethink our approach, and accelerate not only our personal growth but also the evolution of the company.”
Maturity and international expansion
In the past two years, Solve-X has established itself as a mature company with over 60 employees. We introduced four development pillars:
- Digitalization and automation of processes
- BPMN 2.0 microservices
- Data-driven solutions
- UX-UI design
We’ve developed 23 products, with 5 already transitioning to SaaS. A major milestone was the establishment of our R&D department and company registration with ARIS. Our presence has also expanded to the USA and Sweden.
Moving forward with knowledge and values
Looking ahead, we have ambitious plans: Continued certifications (Kubernetes, Java, .NET, Oracle, AI ISO standards, etc.), expanding across European markets, strengthening our footprint in the USA.
Our vision remains clear: to create value through knowledge, standards, consulting, and innovative products.
But Solve-X isn’t just about products and certifications — we are, first and foremost, people. A team that grows together, learns, celebrates success, shares challenges, supports one another, and builds a company rooted in strong values.
As Borut highlighted:
“We are the company. It brings me joy to see how you’re growing and maturing. I’m honored to call us a team — and grateful that you’ve chosen to walk part of your path with us.”
We are committed to a vision of a better world — where technology serves people — and we bring that vision to life every day, together.
Here’s to the next 10 years! 🥂
