What makes Cognos Netherlands really special is their versatility and the ease with which you can access all their knowledge under one roof.

They form a fantastic team that understands exactly what is needed in this kind of process. - Bob Ouwejan, Managing Director IeTee Solutions
Putting the Wehrle Group into good hands was a matter that was close to our hearts as a family. Cognos Germany advised us throughout this challenging process with great professionalism and strategic vision, and was a reliable partner for the entire duration. We are happy to have found a strong partner for the long-term development of our company. - Georg Herth, managing shareholder of E. Wehrle GmbH
We became acquainted with Cognos France very early on in the process and decided to place our trust in them for the sale of the CPL-OP Emballages Group. We would like to thank the team in charge of the project: Valéry Giard, Clément Matelot and Ali Drissi. Their ability to analyse, negotiate and arbitrate in the common interest was a key factor in the success of the transfer. We particularly appreciated their responsiveness during discussions, the complementary nature of their skills and their alignment with the values shared by the various boards involved in the process. All in all, we were able to work with a caring, human and close-knit team that was both efficient and calm. - Founder of the CPL OP Emballages Group
Cognos UK were mandated to find the right investment partner to support the continued growth of the business over the next five years. The team spent time understanding our unique value proposition and used their extensive market knowledge to run a focussed but competitive process with minimal disruption to the day-to-day operations. During the process, they and the team provided invaluable support and practical advice throughout and were key in negotiating the key commercial terms for the deal. - Simon Hambley, founder and CEO of Strata
