Matthias Gutzmann is on a mission to disrupt the procurement industry. He founded DPW, the first organisation of its kind to focus on bringing startups into the industry, after he recognised the need for breaking the procurement silo and collaboration to harness the potential of new digital technology and innovation. DPW’s 2019 launch conference garnered industry acclaim and was dubbed “the best new procurement event in years”. Today, DPW partners with the world’s most progressive companies to unlock the true power of procurement through excellence in digital procurement.
Sjoerd Leemhuis started his career in the financial sector as an advisor and project manager. He was on the finance team of one of the largest mergers in Dutch history (ABN Amro & Fortis). He left his corporate career behind to start Owlin. Within a few years, Owlin has grown into a multinational and profitable AI platform for Third-Party Risk Management and Market Intelligence. Being very familiar with both sides, Sjoerd is equally an expert in the requirements of the start-up ecosystem as well as in the corporate world. .
Adrien Passerieux joined DoiT after 6 years at Google. He now devotes his time at DoiT to educate customers on Cost Reduction through compute reservation mechanisms. He believes that FinOps is a topic for everyone and can’t be reduced to CTOs or technical teams. He enjoys GCP as much as AWS and is passionate about local entrepreneurship.
Alex Dussurgey is passionate about helping people and businesses to reach their aspirational goals through the development of sustainable Procurement and Supply Chain capabilities. He studied Procurement 20 years ago and is practicing it since then. Over the course of his career, he has worked in different regions & industries such as automotive, aeronautic, construction, fintech, rail, oil & gas. He is now using his experience to develop the procurement capabilities at Sastrify, passing knowledge to other generations as well as learning from them.
Charlie Weijer started working in technology in 1998 and has built teams for over a decade. His first foray into cloud technology and SaaS came in 2011, when he joined the team at Salesforce. A few years later, he signed on as one of DocuSign's first hires in their Dublin office. Over the next six years, Charlie helped DocuSign grow from ten employees to 1,000 across Europe. He joined Sastrify in June 2022 as the VP Sales.
