14.04.2011 - LucaNet strengthens its presence in the Benelux countries
The new subsidiary’s primary function is to carry out sales and implementation activities. Initially, After Sales Support will be handled by LucaNet Benelux, located in Amsterdam. Patrick van Gaelen (42) will manage the subsidiary. He is an experienced finance professional who has a broad background in business controlling, consolidation, M&A and management of shared service centres. As an independent consultant, he already advised some of his clients to introduce LucaNet as their planning, control and consolidation tool. It was during these projects that he got into contact with LucaNet Benelux, who hired him to help implement LucaNet with some other clients. According to Patrick van Gaelen, “LucaNet is the only financial intelligence tool I have seen throughout my professional career which lives up to its promises, of being user-friendly with an intuitive user interface, of swift implementations - whereby the user becomes the owner of the tool - and of interfacing to any possible source of data. The tool is unique among its kind, with a lot of potential on the Belgian market for financial intelligence tools.”
