Was great fun to exchange ideas and work with two very fluid, open-minded and dynamic founders and assisting them with a strategic understanding of and introductions into the Mobile Operator industry.Their ambition of bringing mobile internet to all the people of Africa and developing countries around the world who doesn't have a smartphone, is truly inspiring and a difference maker.

So honored to have been Co-Founder and CEO of this Predictive Analytics start-up and to have been part of growing it into +45 Mobile Operator clients in +30 countries, and with employees in another 5 countries.It was a privilege to work with a lot of incredible people along the way on all org. levels and from all backgrounds and cultures. Although the product was probably more innovative than ready when first launched, we never gave up and eventually got it on the right course.That we were able to secure funding from Intel in the middle of the Financial Crisis in 2010 will always be a key personal accomplishment. - See video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q1mTRXXHb4&feature=share - See video: http://vimeo.com/37791360

This was such a hectic period with both a merger between DanNet and MACH through PE funds Advent and Providence, and the subsequent sale of the merged entity to PE fund Warburg Pincus.All this happened and was made possible by a lot of great work by so many teams and individual contributors. I loved leading the Product and Commercial side of the company, and our mutual success in reaching a +55% EBITDA margin while sustaining the industry's best client satisfaction, speaks volume of what we achieved together.

Being able to see every person in my different teams grow professionally, mentally and in their bravery was very special. Being part of moving a group spanning Product Management, Marketing, Communications, Technical Sales Support and Bid Management, from being very cautious and very reactive, into being process owning, idea generating and risk leveraging entities was absolutely incredible.At the same time, I loved being involved in expanding and driving our collective business understanding through cross-organizational projects and initiatives within R&D, Sales Strategy, Business Development and M&A.

Was so humbled to be endowed with the key strategic project of the mother company at the time. The task of building a start-up within the holding company structure as a new business division was nothing less than exhilarating. From scoping plans and product, to finding the key people that could make it happen, and again to launching the product and services and bringing onboard the first 15 Key Accounts excited me and the entire team every day.Even 20 years later, there are many remains of the innovative approach we brought to the industry. I personally learned so much from this experience and is still overwhelmed that our little new Financial Clearinghouse handled over €500 million in FOREX transactions in the first year.

I was given an enormous trust and freedom to interpret the CEO's vision and strategy, and go ensure the organization was executing it, while embracing every individual person and their abilities and personalities. It was a roller coaster of projects and strategic initiatives from BPR/BSC to building up an Indian subsidiary; restructuring the MEA subsidiary handling sales and support; doing business planning and M&A deals. All at the same time. All so much fun and all giving me so many learning points and experiences, all while working with so many different people and business units.I owe a lot of my subsequent career to all the confidence the CEO had in me and to all the possibilities I was given to go understand and develop.

It was so exciting to be promoting and discussing the company's products and strategy with Analysts from all over the world in the middle of the Dot.com period, while at the same time keeping a look out for the rest of the market and the competitors. It was a special time where we grew from Belle Systems to Digiquant and eventually was sold to Intec.

In the middle of a telecom world that was liberalized and which saw a lot of new competition and innovative entrants, we tried to limit churn and win back lost clients. It was almost an impossible mission with new challenges throw into the mix every week. From analysis to activity planning and again to marketing & sales touch-points and back to look at results in the data, the team did an outstanding job of breaking the curve and reversing the lost clients into a net addition game.

My first career related job taught me so many things and allowed me to engage myself into so many different aspects of Marketing. Whether it was managing the Tele Marketing dept., or doing Market Analysis, or Marketing Materials or Campaigns, or the new Website, I learned the practicalities from the ground. So thankful for all the opportunities I got to learn and develop.
