We are excited to see him embark on the digital journey with us. Jean-Luc’s deep knowledge of both technology and the local IT market in Luxembourg will enable us to consolidate our status as a leading provider of professional services, bringing new ideas and innovation to our clients who strive through an ever more complex business landscape.”
