Danielle Meulenberg

Channel Account Executive, MSP Western Europe, Sophos

Never worked in the IT Industry and rolled into it in 2012 after being an expat for 4 years, living abroad in the USA. This experience gave me more understanding about life and how to live your life with common sense.

I started my career in the Marketing and communication after I finished my degree. Working in the OEM and manufacturing market and never left the B2B field. Successfully delivering and execute all that is related to salesmarketing. This broadened my knowledge on both levels and thus started to switch over to more Sales activities, in which I took the opportunity when I joined Sophos. In the past 7 years I have been working with the Channel and its partners and distributors to gain more experience and give the channel the knowledge they expect from a vendor in Cybersecurity.

As the Channel Account Manager for the MSP’s in the Western Europe region, I am the point of contact for those partners who are willing or already acting as a managed service provider and advise them in their path towards being an MSP in the Channel. Working alongside my Channel colleagues to evolve our partners on all levels within cybersecurity and awareness of the cyberthreats.

Owner, Tyneso

Steven Tytgat, raised in Grimbergen near Brussels.

Being the son of 2 doctors and raised in a family of entrepreneurs it was no surprise that I chose the same path.

Being fascinated by IT I was lucky enough to have access to computers and the internet from a very early age.

During my first year as a bachelor in IT I saw opportunity and started my First company.

As an independent consultant in networking, security and VOIP I worked during a few year for the major integrators and telco’s in Belgium.

Building knowledge and experience over the years allowed me to start my own MSP.

In 2005 Tyneso was born. We started out servicing the SMB with the knowledge and the expertise gathered in the enterprise.

As the customer base grew and Tyneso had solid references, we currently focus on mid-sized enterprise (50-500 IT end-users).

Today we are in the zone we want to be in. We love to work together with companies that are on a tipping point. We have a specialization on the IT (infrastructure & architecture) side of M&A integration projects.

Complex migrations and integrations are what triggers me and my team the most. We are like the Riddler, always curious and eager to solve the next puzzle.

We value short communication lines with our customers, have a pragmatic approach and are vendor and cloud agnostic.
