Paul Broekhuijsen appointed CEO of private equity company ND Group B.V.
Paul Broekhuijsen (61) has been appointed new CEO of Eindhoven-based private equity and holding company ND Group B.V.
Dutch-born Paul has extensive executive and board experience with major international companies. He previously served as CEO of Ecolog International FZE, a Dubai-based integrated services company that is one of the major companies within ND Group. He was chairman of the Supervisory Board at leading logistical systems company Vanderlande Industries (2010-2015) and CEO of international industrial services company Hertel (2011 – 2014). He earlier served as Executive Board member of Dutch construction and technical services group TBI, and before that as President of the GEA Refrigeration Division (Grasso’s Koninklijke Machinefabrieken). He has an MSc in Electrical Engineering from Delft University of Technology. As CEO, Paul succeeds Nazif Destani, founder of ND Group.
ND Group, which recently established its new headquarters in Eindhoven and is a founding member of the World Trade Center, Eindhoven, has an unconventional ‘open-door’ approach to private equity investment. It is sector-neutral and invests in both new and established ventures, as well as unorthodox opportunities not normally considered by larger financial institutions and traditional private equity firms.
Paul Broekhuijsen says: “I look forward to working with colleagues old and new on positioning ND Group as a real innovator in the market. Our financial credentials, global business expertise and entrepreneurial spirit mean we are looking at investments across a range of sectors, including unconventional business ventures.”
Nazif Destani says: “This is an important step forward for ND Group as we look to expand into new sectors and geographies. Paul’s intimate knowledge of ND Group gained through leading Ecolog International, as well as his extensive experience in a wide variety of industries and markets, make him uniquely qualified for this role.”
Nazif Destani will now be a member of an advisory board providing strategic support to the ND Group leadership team.
