Research Software Firm Nebu Names New MD

In The Netherlands, research software firm Nebu has appointed Otto van Linden as Managing Director, responsible for the day-to-day running of the company. In this role, he will free up CEO Eric van Velzen to focus on the market, customers and promoting Nebu.

Founded in the Netherlands in 1992 by van Velzen and Fred Broers, Nebu is now a global company with offices in the UK, USA, Hungary, Sweden and Germany. New MD van Linden (pictured) has been with the company since last October, serving as interim Business Development Manager. Prior to this, he was General Manager of software firm NICE Systems, which acquired his former employer CyberTech International, where he was MD. Earlier, he was Marketing and Sales Manager at TetraNed, and Project Manager at Koning & Hartman.

van Velzen comments: 'Otto brings experience in building businesses and delivering results, and has been a major contributor to the growth and success of an internationally oriented technology-company, like Nebu. He has demonstrated great ability in leading organizations, including product, sales and services teams, and introducing new technologies and innovation to the market'.
