Bio
Daan Kahmann
I really enjoyed working together with Marcel during my time at DocuSign. Marcel has really impressed me with his forward way of thinking, digital mindset and hands-on mentality. He is extremely knowledgable not only on the legal aspect, but specifically digitalisation. We started a fundamental change project to help digitalise TCR's workflows and environment. Marcel was always transparant, open and really leading the way internally. We create a project plan together and with his background in using similar systems we built a solid case. I would recommend Marcel to any company since he is a great asset and hope to be working together again in the future!

Marcel is a responsive, target oriented and meticulous legal counsel. He is an important resource, in particular in situations where legal and commercial considerations should run hand in hand. His advice and actions strongly supported the business interests in line with the mutually agreeable legal solutions. In the projects I have worked together with him, we were therefore each time able to keep the momentum for achieving the optimum and timely completion of the missions. I have also appreciated Marcel’s analytical and well-considered approach as well as ownership.
