International growth

While working in Norway, van Zeeland has been recognised as a top-10 finalist in E24's Technology Leadership Talents. Through his various roles in the Norwegian business community, he has also demonstrated impressive execution capabilities in managing technical departments and successful projects related to international acquisition processes.

Under Janne T. Morstøl's leadership, Bliksund has over the past three years made three acquisitions, entered several new markets and grown from 40 to over 100 million in revenue. Considering Bliksund's strategy to further develop its portfolio and grow internationally, she believes that van Zeeland is the right man in the right place.

In a short time, Bliksund has gone from being a Norwegian company with Norwegian customers to becoming an international supplier with customers in over 30 countries. This requires more employees with international experience, and we are convinced that Jeroen's background and experience will strengthen us in our further growth," says Janne T. Morstøl, CEO of Bliksund
