Joris Van Der Gucht

Entrepreneur in Residence

As an accountant, Joris identified a need to automate key accounting workflows, including accounts production, working papers and corporation tax. He co-founded Silverfin, a cloud-based platform that gives accountants the technology and tools they need to be more successful – for themselves and their clients.

The fintech/SAAS company improves efficiency, competitiveness and profitability of compliance and reporting services – as well as powering the delivery of new advisory services.

Joris is an expert in building commercial organisations, leadership and frameworks and describes his journey as moving from the frustration of number crunching to the happiness of technology. He is currently an Entrepreneur in Residence at the Vlerick Entrepreneurship Academy.
