- Still buzzing from three fantastic days in New York! 🗽 Last week, we brought our North American customer community together for Itineris Connect. We talked about AI, cybersecurity, and the future of our industry. In my speech, I focused on what I believe will matter most as technology keeps accelerating: TRUST. Trust in technology and data. Trust between utilities and their customers. And trust between customers and partners like Itineris. For many of our customers, we have been that trusted partner for many years. That trust is

- Last week, our colleagues in Hyderabad came together to connect, share experiences, and exchange ideas, joined by our CEO Edgard Vermeersch and members of our leadership team.

- Great to see NieuweStroom already bringing new innovations to market, only weeks after the successful go-live of UMAX. What I like about this launch is that it demonstrates exactly what a modern utility platform should enable. Not just running the business efficiently, but also giving energy suppliers the flexibility to quickly adapt, innovate, and respond to changing market needs. NieuweStroom has never been afraid to challenge the status quo in the Dutch energy market. It's great to see that spirit of innovation continue, and

- Edgard Vermeersch (Itineris) na de groeipijnen: ‘Bij een groot contract zet ik Tina Turner op: ‘Simply the Best’’Een tijdlang wilde Edgard Vermeersch niet meer voor zijn ‘klotebedrijf’ werken, maar als Club Brugge-supporter is ‘bluvn goan’ zijn levensmotto. Met zijn softwarebedrijf Itineris maakt hij nu furore in de VS. ‘Al die grote concurrenten daar, we kick their ass.'
