Yksilöllisempien

Yksilöllisempien is a Finnish grammatical form: it is the genitive plural of the comparative adjective yksilöllisempi, itself derived from yksilöllinen meaning individualized or personalized. The comparative expresses a higher degree of a quality, and in Finnish the adjective agrees with the noun in number and case. Therefore yksilöllisempien appears when describing plural nouns in the genitive or in phrases where the noun is implied in the genitive, for example yksilöllisempien ratkaisujen or yksilöllisempien palvelujen kehittäminen.

In practice, yksilöllisempien is used to indicate that more emphasis is placed on tailoring or personalizing compared with something less individualized. It commonly appears in discussions about design, services, education, healthcare, marketing, and policy, where actors aim to address diverse or specific needs rather than offering uniform solutions. It contrasts with less individualized expressions such as yksilölliset (individualized, but not in the comparative degree) or more general formulations.

Typical usage examples include phrases like "yksilöllisempien ratkaisujen kehittäminen" (the development of more individualized solutions), "yksilöllisempien tarpeiden huomioiminen" (awareness of more individualized needs), and "palvelujen räätälöinti yksilöllisempien asiakkaiden mukaan" (tailoring services to more individualized customers). While the form is mainly a grammatical element, its presence signals a shift toward personalization and attention to specific circumstances of multiple entities or groups.
