Expanding into the Netherlands

Precise Biometrics decided to expand into the Netherlands with one of their product areas: Digital Identity. After thorough research, they chose the Netherlands for several reasons:

Market Similarities: The Dutch market is similar to the Northern European market, sharing comparable business processes and a strong proficiency in English. This cultural and operational alignment makes it easier for Precise Biometrics to introduce their systems.
IT Maturity: The Netherlands boasts a robust IT infrastructure and a high level of IT awareness. Dutch companies are well-adapted to implementing new systems, which aligns with Precise Biometrics’ focus on digital identity solutions.
Suitability for New Technology: The Dutch market’s openness to new technology and innovative solutions makes it an ideal environment for Precise Biometrics’ advanced systems.

Collaboration with Sqales

In order to expand successfully into the Netherlands, Precise Biometrics was looking for a partner with a strong network, business expertise, and a local office. This is how they came across Sqales and started the collaboration.

“Sqales has done a great job providing us with new leads. I am quite amazed at how skilled they are at finding these qualified opportunities. All the meetings that we had were really productive. They pinpointed the right companies and found the right contacts.”

Teodor also added, “I like to work with them, they are really open and flexible. Doing a 180 is fine; Sqales is able to adapt and the team feels part of the Precise team.”

Goals for the future

Looking ahead, Precise Biometrics aims to be the leading provider of smart office visitor management solutions across Northern Europe and beyond. Their primary goal is to become the go-to solution for businesses seeking efficient visitor management.

They are dedicated to helping customers transition from analog to automated systems. Teodor emphasizes, “We strive to make processes simpler, faster, and more efficient. We believe in physical interaction and aim to automate manual tasks to save time and improve operations.”
