Unbelievably, this is deal number 7 this year for our ever-expanding team — and what a ride this one was.

Seamless execution in a high-stakes, high-paced process by Wesley Kuiper (and yours truly, of course). Our first team expansion last year is proving to be a one-shot bullseye!

Thank you Dmitry, Oleg, Arjen and Steve for the trust, and huge congratulations on building the number one transfer pricing documentation software player in the Benelux, with a tier-1 client base of undeniable quality - a testament to the product you created.

Many thanks to Bruce Martin and Daniel Zwicky for the collaboration on the buyer side.

Big congrats again to the IPS team on this milestone - and as always, to close off this puff piece of shameless self-promotion: if you’re a founder or CEO of a technology business looking to (pre-)exit, Koen Derks, Wesley Kuiper, Julia van Haren, Maarten Tellegen and my DMs are open!
