The summer of 2024 will be dominated by the Olympic Games in Paris. Just like the Dutch top athletes, our customers and we at KATE Innovations have the ambition to go for gold with some great growth ambitions. Time to include the real estate world in all the innovations that are coming.
The starting signal for these energetic growth ambitions comes from a nice investment that KATE Innovations recently received from BORON, the investment company of the JA Fentener family of Vlissingen. This additional investment enables KATE to invest even more energy in customers and employees, to improve existing products, and to launch a brand new software platform for appraisers, brokers, financiers and owners.
The market is in the starting blocks
Because we have both feet firmly in the real estate market, we see that the market is ready for the future. The adoption of new technologies has increased dramatically over the past two years. We see that our customers are willing to invest in digitalization. Time for the next step, according to KATE CEO Erik Schlooz: “We are the leader in the field of digitalization. Innovation is very important. Together with our customers, we invest heavily in the appraiser of the future and related software solutions. Because with everything we do, we strive for gold for our users.”
Customer engagement
“Our customers are very important to us,” Schlooz emphasizes. “We would like to involve them in our future plans. What is their opinion? What can we improve? We do this, for example, with customer sessions and inspiration sessions. In this way, we ensure that we exceed the expectations of appraisers, brokers, financiers and owners time and time again.”
A brand new software platform
KATE is also working hard to create a brand new one state of the art software platform. Schlooz says enthusiastically: “We are going to give eight years of experience a completely new look. So that our customers are even better prepared for the future: an even faster system, which is extremely user-friendly and focuses even further on digitalization and sustainability.”
A great development: “We have been building the new platform for over a year. But we can now really put the finishing touches on it, so that we excel in performance and results. We hope to launch the new platform in December 2024. We are implementing new technologies, putting sustainability on the map and rolling out new products at an accelerated pace.”
The renewal of the software means a major step forward for customers and an expansion of the product portfolio. KATE is determined to exceed the expectations of the real estate world with this leading platform. “We are building a strong foundation for the future. We always say: ‘The best valuation platform, now even better!’ We are doing everything we can to achieve a great final sprint towards December 2024. In short: the Golden software solution.”
Investing in our hearts
How KATE goes for gold? With dedication and teamwork. “Every top athlete knows: success does not only depend on individual effort, but also on a strong team behind you,” Schlooz explains. “That is why we are very proud and happy with our people. They are the beating heart of KATE, and we are happy to invest in them.”
KATE does this, among other things, by organizing training and inspiration sessions for their employees. “In this way we develop and utilize all the knowledge and talent in our company. And we can serve our customers even better.”
