Handing on a mission, preserving the DNA<\/h2>\n
Marc Ansoult, the former CEO, co-founded Exquando and has led the company for 17 years. He remains a shareholder and will continue to support the company through this new chapter as an adviser and board member.
\nCatherine Regniers, the current CFO, who has managed human resources and finances since the company\u2019s earliest days, is also passing on the operational baton. Her rigorous work and disciplined management leave the company with particularly sound financial foundations.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter 17 years at the helm of Exquando, the time has come for Catherine and me to step back and give the company fresh momentum. A mission isn\u2019t sold, it\u2019s handed on. I am confident that Leila and Sabine, together with the current team, will grow the company with respect for our clients, our people and our core values,\u201d says Marc Ansoult.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A renewed ambition driven by AI and sector expertise<\/h2>\n
Leila Rebbouh, the incoming CEO, brings more than 15 years of experience in data and artificial intelligence. Alongside Sabine Bo\u00ebl, who has driven Exquando\u2019s operational excellence for several years, she aims to accelerate business development while integrating the opportunities offered by AI into the core of information sectors’ operations.<\/p>\n
\u201cExquando has built remarkable expertise in information governance and a strong relationship of trust with its clients. Our ambition is to build on this DNA to open a new chapter: turning information into a genuine strategic asset for organisations and reinventing the way it is used in the age of artificial intelligence,\u201d says Leila Rebbouh.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have known Exquando from the inside for 14 years now. Becoming a shareholder alongside Leila is a wonderful opportunity: we share the same drive to grow the company without ever losing what makes it strong, the quality of our teams and the trust of our clients,\u201d adds Sabine Bo\u00ebl, COO.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A solid foundation for future growth and innovation<\/h2>\n
Exquando remains an independent SME with a strong family culture and deep regional roots. The company stays true to what defines its identity: a strong emphasis on its people, where the success of employees underpins the success of the company, and a systemic approach to information, the infoSystem, which remains its hallmark.
\nThe new management\u2019s ability to innovate around artificial intelligence and continue growing the business opens new opportunities for the benefit of our clients, prospects, partners and employees.<\/p>\n
