International top manager will lead Human Inference
Human Inference, the European leader in data quality solutions, has announced that Sabine Palinckx will be joining the company on March 1st as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Sabine Palinckx joins the company from SAP where she was Vice President responsible for the small and medium-size business (SMB) in South EMEA. She will report to the Human Inference board of directors, which is led by former Oracle executive Loek van den Boog.
Sabine Palinckx brings years of international software business experience to her role at Human Inference. She began her career at IBM and has worked at Prophecy and Business Objects in various commercial roles, including Executive Director to the CEO at Business Objects. During this period she worked closely with Bernard Liataud, gained a wealth of experience and grew her international network. Following this, she was appointed CEO of the Dutch division of Business Objects. In this function she was nominated by FEM business and MNN as a finalist in the 'Female Manager of the Year 2007'.
Following this role, Sabine was appointed General Manager for Benelux with Business Objects. In her final position with the company, she rose to become Regional Vice President and General Manager of North Europe, managing 250 people and responsible for more than 100 million euro revenues. She was also part of the European Management team. Based on her achievements in this role, she received the 'Computable CEO of the Year' award. When Business Objects was acquired by SAP in 2008, Palinckx was appointed Vice President of South-EMEA for the SMB.
'There are significant market opportunities for Human Inference and its data quality solutions, particularly in the international arena,' says Sabine Palinckx. 'In these turbulent economic times, the quality of customer data is of great importance as a means of reducing risk and driving down costs. With my experience and international network, I am looking forward to contributing to the continued growth of Human Inference.'

'She has everything that we were looking for in a modern CEO in the IT industry to be successful. She has vast experience in leading a software company, understands the data quality market inside out and has a strong international network. Above all Sabine has unbridled energy and commitment.'
