Eric Kuisch succeeds Bart Oskam as COO of Eurofiber Group

Bart Oskam (1966) has been on the Board of Eurofiber Group since 2007. During his time with the company, Eurofiber developed into a leading provider of high-quality digital connectivity with a fiberoptic network that is part of the vital infrastructure in the Netherlands. In Belgium, the company took on the role of strong challenger. Eurofiber also became a prominent cloud infrastructure player with five datacenters of its own and the successful DCspine service, offering flexible connectivity between datacenters. ‘After a very exciting and intensive period of 12 years at Eurofiber, the time has come to create more room for myself, my family, and my ‘after 50’ aspirations,’ Oskam says. After he steps down in the course of 2020, he will be focusing on consultancy and on guidance and coaching for start-ups, among other activities. He will continue to be affiliated with Eurofiber in a consulting capacity. CEO Alex Goldblum has been working closely with Oskam over the past 12 years: ‘Bart has been a driving force behind Eurofiber’s development and successes, as a strategist, cultural ambassador and innovation champion. We will be sad to see him go, but fully respect his choice and wish him all the best in the next stage of his career and life.’
