LOGEX makes leadership changes to accelerate its growth agenda
Amsterdam, February 26, 2026 – LOGEX is making significant changes to its Executive Committee as it prepares for its next phase of growth. The company has appointed Christoph Knaack as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Freddy Dijkman as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Mark Flanagan as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), and has created the new role of Chief Product Officer (CPO), which will be filled by returning LOGEX alumnus Rikkert Paping. These changes also mark the departure of long-time CEO Philipp Jan Flach, who led the company for nine and a half years and will continue as Advisor to the Board.
Philipp Jan Flach said: “I love LOGEX, the team and most of all, I love the impact LOGEX has on healthcare. But after nearly ten years, the company will benefit from renewed energy and a fresh perspective. I am convinced that Christoph Knaack, together with the other new and existing Executive Committee members, will successfully guide LOGEX through its next phase of growth. I look forward to seeing the company prosper while accelerating the mission of turning data into better healthcare across Europe.”
New CEO appointment
Christoph Knaack joins LOGEX as an experienced CEO. The German native was most recently CEO of PREQIN, a global data and analytics company that aims to increase both the transparency of and the access to the global alternative assets market. “Healthcare systems are under immense pressure to be affordable, accessible and of the highest quality. I could not be more excited about the role at LOGEX and the opportunity ahead of us supporting the healthcare industry with the best data and insights. I am deeply impressed by the expertise across the team, and I have no doubt that together we can deliver even more advanced analytics solutions that help care providers improve the delivery of healthcare in Europe.”
Additional changes within the Executive Committee
Joining Christoph Knaack in the refreshed Executive Committee are Freddy Dijkman, Mark Flanagan and returning LOGEX leader Rikkert Paping.
Freddy Dijkman (CFO) brings over 25 years of international finance leadership experience across the technology sector. He previously served as CFO at Kinly, T‑Mobile Netherlands, Avaya and, most recently, Recharge. “LOGEX is an organisation where financial leadership and entrepreneurial thinking come together. I look forward to helping shape the next phase of growth with a clear focus on strong financial foundations and scalable operations.”
Mark Flanagan brings more than two decades of global experience leading revenue transformation across SaaS, enterprise software and technology-enabled services. He has held senior commercial leadership roles at Red Points, Nitro, Vistatec and Marketo, where he built and scaled international revenue organisations, strengthened commercial operating models and contributed to significant enterprise value creation. “LOGEX sits at the intersection of data, healthcare and long-term system sustainability. I am excited to join at a pivotal stage in the company’s growth journey. Together, we will sharpen execution, deepen strategic customer partnerships and build a scalable global revenue engine that supports both market leadership and durable value creation.”
Rikkert Paping returns to LOGEX after a sabbatical. With more than ten years at the company, he brings deep expertise in healthcare analytics, product leadership, and a strong understanding of the challenges healthcare organisations face, as well as how to translate these into impactful go-to-market strategies. “Returning to LOGEX feels very natural. I feel closely connected to our mission of helping healthcare professionals make better decisions with reliable insights. I enjoy building products and teams that deliver real value. With rapid advancements in AI, we have a unique opportunity to further strengthen our platform and deliver positive impact for our customers.”
Together with Chief Human Resources Officer Marlo Schlaghecke‑Stijweg and Chief Customer Officer Hilde Aune Skretting, the newly strengthened Executive Committee will continue to drive LOGEX’s long‑term growth and impact across Europe. In parallel, the company is searching for a permanent Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to build on the foundation established by interim CTO Ivneet Kaur, ensuring continuity and leadership as LOGEX advances its technology and product strategy.
