Company Overview

Fabien Pinckaers began combining his love for business and technology from an early age – by 13, he had already created and sold his first piece of business management software for a company called “Les Transports Verts”. During his time at the University of Louvain-la-Neuve (where he majored in computer science), Fabien worked on a number of projects utilizing various software systems, such as Auction-inEurope, Openstuff, and TinyERP (later known as OpenERP, then Odoo).

In just two years, Auction-in-Europe surpassed eBay in monthly art sales volume, moving 15,000 lots per month, and establishing itself as the industry leader in Belgium. TinyERP has been the most successful of them, expanding becoming OpenERP and then becoming Odoo as it expanded beyond ERP to encompass other types of software.

With a lot of hard work and determination, Fabien was able to grow the one-man hand of the company (he was the only employee), into a multinational company with offices on three continents and more than 100 employees. Fabien achieved this in eight short years and before the age of 31! “I needed to change the world.

I wanted to…. You know how it is when you are young and you have big dreams, a lot of energy, and naive stupidity. My dream was to lead the enterprise management market with fully opensource software”, states Fabien.
