Larendael, the investment and development company of entrepreneur Wim Beelen, has recruited Chris Blankestijn as CFO since March.

Chris has gained experience within international companies over the last 10 years, managing various projects in the field of change management, data exchange projects, guidance in implementation and advice with regard to IT landscaping.

Based on a financial background in accountancy, Chris is able to think in process terms, recognize risks and implement controls to optimize processes and reduce risk. Chris says: "By combining Finance, IT and the Business through data valuation and providing insight, the focus is in the right place!"

Wim Beelen, Creative Founder Larendael, adds, "With Chris' expertise and experience in the financial sector, he is the missing puzzle piece Larendael still needed. We look forward to taking Larendael to the next level together."
