Telco leader, Simon Vye, joins the GNX Strategy Advisory Board
Utrecht, 28 November 2023.- GNX, the leading provider of global internet and private connectivity, is delighted to announce the newest member to its Advisory Board, Simon Vye.
Simon, a leader in the telecommunications, media, and technology sectors, has recently joined the GNX Advisory Board to support the company’s growth journey.
He brings with him an excellent track record of driving growth, creating opportunities, achieving visions and, throughout his career, helping businesses win. Just as importantly, he combines strong collaboration and communication skills with a sense of fun.
“Simon brings a wealth of experience, know-how, and an incredible network to our business, which aligns, complements, and helps to steer our strong Business Development and Executive teams,” said Rutger Bevaart, CEO of GNX.
As GNX continues to consolidate as a leader in our industry, with more enterprises and MSPs seeking a connectivity partner that’s able to truly understand and adapt to their needs, our Advisory Board team plays a key role in guiding and advising us to make informed decisions at all levels of the organization.
Rutger Bevaart, CEO
Cloud adoption and its associated trend towards public and private internet-based networks over traditional MPLS set the stage for GNX’s rapid growth over the past few years. That, coupled with their unique approach to simplicity, transparency, and underpinning carrier-neutral GNX+ platform, has made the company the partner of choice for enterprises and MSPs, and an attractive business for investors and industry professionals. In this context, GNX’s Advisory Board brings together a number of field experts – in finance, business strategy, tech, etc. – to act as a sparring partner along this exciting journey.
“I’m delighted to be joining Rutger, Rick [Mur], and this amazing team of professionals who are the GNX team. Their energy is like no other in the industry, as it’s their passion for doing things differently, yet better,” said Simon.
I’m personally impressed by their “fanatic” obsession with customer service, end to end, and I am confident that they have what it takes to lead the pack. As a coach and mentor, I am looking forward to being part of this story, transforming the way to global connectivity.
