Barendrecht, the Netherlands – April 4, 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Blinqx, a provider of software solutions for SMEs, corporates, and service organizations, has brought on Joris Van Der Gucht\u2014founder and former owner of the accountancy software platform Silverfin\u2014as a senior advisor to help establish Blinqx as a key player in the Belgian market. He will also leverage his sector expertise to support and advise Blinqx\u2019s accountancy division during its next growth phase. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n oris Van Der Gucht founded the Belgian accountancy software platform Silverfin in 2013. As an accountant, he became frustrated with inefficient workflows, which he and his co-founder automated themselves. Over the course of ten years, Silverfin grew to become a leading software provider across 15 European countries. Last September, the company was acquired by software giant Visma, marking a natural moment for Joris to apply his expertise and entrepreneurial experience in new ways\u2014including as a senior advisor at Blinqx. <\/p>\n\n Ruud van der Kruk, CEO of Blinqx<\/strong>, commented: Joris Van Der Gucht<\/strong> is equally enthusiastic about the partnership: “The founders of Blinqx previously developed Fiscaal Gemak, setting trends in the Dutch accountancy and tax market. Silverfin did the same in Belgium. Bringing together this shared entrepreneurial spirit is really exciting. Blinqx has a clear mission: to become the largest software brand in Europe. <\/p>\n\n In addition to that enormous ambition, Ruud and his team are incredibly grounded, approachable, and people-focused. “I firmly believe that combination is key to success as an entrepreneur. That\u2019s why, in addition to becoming an advisor, I\u2019ve also become a shareholder. I look forward to contributing to Blinqx\u2019s further growth in Belgium alongside Ruud and his team.” <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n
