During more than 3 years I've worked with Nico. I get to know him as a somebody with great negotiations skills and expert in sales management. But also as a real people coach, who could really "move" people for an common goal.

Nico is the right man on the right place. Working for him was a real pleasure. He believes in the good balance of work hard / play hard. Knowing the true meanings of the words "sales", "passion" and "commitment"; Nico does always the utmost best to make every project come to a success.
