INNOCOM and Craftzing join forces
A new ownership structure and strategic partnership create the foundation for INNOCOM's next phase of growth, while preserving the independence, expertise and client focus that define who we are.
Transformation doesn't wait. Neither do we.
For more than 25 years, INNOCOM has helped organisations navigate complex transformations through enterprise architecture, strategic advisory and technology-neutral guidance. Today, we are taking an important step in our own journey.
Over the past months, founder Johan Cattersel, CEO Jurgen Van De Sompel and the management team worked on a long-term succession solution for INNOCOM.
Today, we have reached an important milestone: Johan Cattersel has transferred his shareholding to a new ownership structure in which CEO Jurgen Van De Sompel and members of the management team become shareholders alongside Craftzing, a Belgian company whose values, culture and independent mindset closely match our own.
What immediately stood out to us was the strong fit between our organisations. We share the same belief in independent advice, long-term client relationships and expertise-driven growth, while bringing complementary capabilities to the table.
Johan remains actively involved in the broader story through a new role at group level. We strongly believe this partnership creates the right foundation for INNOCOM's next phase of growth.
"After more than 25 years of entrepreneurship, today we are taking an important step to secure INNOCOM's future for the long term. Together with members of our management team, colleagues and Craftzing, a strong and complementary Belgian partner, we are creating the foundation for a new chapter of growth. In my role as a board member at group level, I will continue to actively contribute to and support this journey.
Proud of what we have built together, I look to the future with great confidence."
Johan Cattersel
Two organisations, one transformation journey
Together, INNOCOM and Craftzing cover the full transformation journey: from strategy, enterprise architecture and business transformation to experience & design, technology integration, delivery and data & AI. Both organisations retain their own identity, positioning & expertise while combining strengths where clients benefit most.
What Craftzing brings
Craftzing is a Belgian transformation partner with expertise in digital strategy, experience design, technology integration, AI and change. By connecting strategy through to execution, Craftzing helps organisations translate vision into working products, measurable change and lasting business impact. Strengthened by the earlier additions of Wieni, Namahn, Sagacify and Made, the group now counts more than 300 professionals across multiple Belgian hubs.
What INNOCOM brings
INNOCOM brings something rare: 25 years of deep architectural expertise, trusted executive relationships and a proven track record in enterprise architecture, business transformation and cybersecurity.
This expertise is reinforced by the INNOCOM Institute, the only private organisation in Europe accredited to offer a Master of Science in Enterprise Architecture. These are not capabilities you build quickly.
"Clients today expect partners who connect strategy with realisation.
By combining our strengths, we can guide them across the full journey: from vision to impact."
Roeland Tegenbos
"From the very start of my appointment as CEO, strengthening ownership, governance and growth has been central to our strategic plan. With Craftzing, we immediately found the right fit: a partner with the same DNA and values, and the same independent view on client challenges.
Complementarity is the essence of our collaboration."
Jurgen Van de Sompel
What this means for our clients
Most importantly, INNOCOM remains INNOCOM.
Our people, culture, expertise, independence and commitment to our clients remain unchanged. What changes is our ability to create even greater impact.
Clients gain access to a broader ecosystem of complementary expertise while continuing to work with the same trusted INNOCOM teams.
Together with Craftzing, we combine deep architectural expertise with capabilities in experience & design, technology integration, delivery and data & AI.
The result is a stronger proposition across the full transformation journey: from strategy and architecture to realisation, adoption and measurable outcomes. Together, we are better positioned than ever to help organisations turn strategy into execution and vision into impact.
