SoftwareOne and Snowflake are intensifying their collaboration to support organizations in the Benelux in modernizing their data environments and accelerating AI innovation. The companies combine technical and business expertise to help customers translate their data strategy into concrete results.
Data is playing an increasingly important role in business operations, but many organizations struggle with fragmented data environments and increasing demands in terms of data management and governance. With the expanded partnership, SoftwareOne and Snowflake aim to tackle these challenges together.
Technical setup and business application
Snowflake provides its AI Data Cloud for this purpose, a platform that allows companies to store, manage, analyze, and deploy data for AI applications. SoftwareOne adds expertise in software, cloud, consulting, FinOps, and digital transformation.
By combining both perspectives, the parties aim to support customers in both the technical setup and the business application of their data. SoftwareOne is thus strengthening its offering in the areas of data modernization, cloud transformation, and enterprise AI. Dennis Scheerman, Team Lead Presales Enterprise Software & Infrastructure at SoftwareOne, states that data has become one of the most important business assets and that the partnership with Snowflake should help customers gain better control over their data.
Joint customer approach in the Benelux
The expanded collaboration focuses, among other things, on a joint customer approach, sales, and knowledge development. Both companies are also building a pipeline of potential customers in the Benelux, where support is intended to cover the entire data and AI chain: from strategy and governance to implementation and optimization of existing solutions.
Martin Frederik, Country Manager Benelux at Snowflake, points to the challenge in the Benelux to better utilize data. According to him, organizations increasingly want to use their data to gain a competitive advantage, and the combination of SoftwareOne’s market knowledge with Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud should help companies convert their data strategy into business results.
Broadening the approach to data and AI projects
With this step, SoftwareOne and Snowflake want to avoid data and AI initiatives being approached purely as technical projects. By bringing together strategy, governance, and implementation, the parties hope to help organizations in the Benelux make their data environments future-proof.
