Corporate Development & Strategy
Proalpha expands its management team
Marine Gurzadyan has been appointed to the Management Board of the Proalpha Group.
She heads the Corporate Development & Strategy department, which was newly created a year ago. She is responsible for corporate strategy, product management, the anticipation of relevant software solutions for customers and mergers & acquisitions. Together with Eric Verniaut (Chief Executive Officer) and the five other members of the Executive Board, she will support the further development and growth of Proalpha in the long term.
In her new position, Marine Gurzadyan is responsible at management level for identifying and selecting companies that strengthen the Proalpha Group's product portfolio and industrial expertise. In addition, she leads the integration of the acquired know-how and is responsible for ensuring the continuous transformation of the company. Marine Gurzadyan has been with Proalpha since July 2020 and has held these responsibilities since then as Head of Division.
Marine Gurzadyan has many years of experience in strategic corporate and transaction consulting. Prior to joining Proalpha, she worked for eight years at the auditing firm KPMG in Germany and Sweden, during which time she supported Proalpha projects. Her responsibilities at KPMG included management consulting on corporate, product and M&A strategy issues as well as post-merger integration and transformation programs.
"We have clearly set the course for growth: We want to grow organically and profitably as well as dynamize our strategic growth through best-of-breed acquisitions. Both are building blocks that will bring us closer to our vision of an innovation platform that profitably combines best-of-breed with best-of-suite. With Marine Gurzadyan, we have a dynamic person on board who will drive this vision forward," says Eric Verniaut, CEO of Proalpha.
"Our goal is to offer our customers innovative digital solutions that seamlessly support their current and future business models. Customer proximity, customer satisfaction and the best talent provide the basis for our success," says Marine Gurzadyan.
