20 YEARS EXPERIENCE
With Group K to the next level
Group K, an IT integrator with our headquarters in Houthalen-Helchteren, was founded by the administrators Frank and Theo Keunen and originated as a logical growth pole from the company K.A.N.S.-EXPERTS BVBA (Keunen Auditing Network Solutions Experts) that has also been active in Information Technology and in Audit activities for more than 16 years. This company was founded by Theo Keunen in 2006 until the end of 2020, whereby the creation of a new company was necessary to bring the strategy of the company to a next level. That is why Group K was founded in mid-2021.
Further expansion
In recent years, partly but not only due to COVID-19, there has been an increased demand for IT support and digitization in the business world, which forced further expansion. In order to realize this goal Frank has recruited Stephan Krug since mid of September 2021 as a new co- managing partner to further strengthen Group K.
The core business activities
Companies are being forced to accelerate their digital transformation (COVID-19). Many integration partners only focus on revenue gains without offering them more business added value. There is a lot of room for optimization in terms of architecture and licensing, connectivity, security, visibility and day-to-day IT management. Those pillars form the core business activities of Group K.
- Re-invent IT Partnership for Businesses
- No-Nonsense approach
- Going Next Level
Only three of many things our founders Frank & Theo Keunen and Stephan Krug wanted to be key in the business approach of Group K.
With each more than 20 years of experience, they gained a lot of experience and learned how to build an exceptional service offering, but also in which area’s to differentiate from the common suppliers in the market.
Value added partner for ICT services
The goal was clear, what would they expect themselves from a self-called added value add partner for ICT services, and how to make it feasible in a clear offering.
Group K has been founded in 2021, with a clear focus on 3 main pillars
1. Cloud first infrastructure
2. Connectivity to an organization's resources, from LAN, WLAN, WAN to SASE
3. IT Security in hybrid and distributed environments
Our milestones
With the help of Joris Meylaers to translate the ideas into an operational structure, Group K became a strong player in the field of ICT integrators in Belgium. Still being a young player in the market, Group K has achieved a lot of proud making milestones:
Selected as Microsoft Security Expert Partner by Microsoft and Ingram Micro
Each year nominated for at least one category in the Data News ‘IT Channel Awards’
Named HPE Aruba Rising Star for fiscal year 2022
And the best has yet to come.
In 2023, Group K has become an organization of 20 senior level experts wanting to go the extra mile for their clients.
With the ambition of being a great place to work and aiming for the long term relationship with both clients and customers, we are ready for the next chapter of an amazing story.
