Robert Lagas Director Group Business Development
In his new role, Robert Lagas (47) will work closely with Qurius CEO Leen Zevenbergen to develop new (international) contracts in which the three strategic pillars of Qurius ─ Innovation, Sustainability and The New Way of Working ─ are the fundamental principles. Robert Lagas: "Qurius has the vision that in its customer service, the innovation of technology and its integrated application is the key to their success. Too many companies and organisations ─ small, medium and even large ones ─ are behind in adapting their IT environments. They therefore don't have the applications with which they can optimally play their roles in value chains. Besides, they often lack the appropriate interaction platforms with their customers ─ corporate relations, consumers or citizens. And quite often, interfaces are insufficiently linked to back office systems and internal professional systems in business analysis and knowledge sharing. As one of the few Microsoft Dynamics partners in the European mid and upper mid market, Qurius offers an integrated range of different technologies in software, hardware, infrastructure and support services including business consulting, cloud computing, hosting and training."
