Corporate Communications Manager Digital Division - Lier, Belgium
Danny has spent over 20 years with the Digital Printing Solutions Division of Flint Group, starting as a support engineer in 1996.
“I joined Xeikon in 1996, at the very verge of digital printing. As a support engineer I travelled a few times around the world installing digital presses, training new distributors, supporting exhibitions and events and being a technical liaison with our OEM sales channels (IBM, Xerox, Agfa) at the time. Digital printing has always been a strong technological world involving a lot of skills in IT and automation which attracted me as an engineer.
As a small company, having worked with those big OEM’s, it was a unique experience and an excellent education in research & development, new business and marketing plans. In 2004 Xeikon decided to start developing its own solutions for the document and commercial printing markets. At that time, I had the opportunity to take the lead in the business development.
Being part of Flint Group now, we have the perfect launch-pad to further extend our product lines and expand geographically. I believe with the Xeikon products at the basis, Flint Group has the most complete portfolio on the market to also become a worldwide leader in printing equipment. I’m very happy to take the lead on our outbound communication to make sure we put out the right messaging to the right audiences at the right time.
Two decades later, seems a long time, but there has never been a dull moment – not in this industry!”

Flint Groups motivates its employees to follow training that is in line with your own personal and professional expectations. To be honest, I have to admit it is hard work, there are many things to take into account, but at the end this is the best school there is for me.
