Using the Impero platform, Dutch companies will now be able to simplify and optimize their governance, risk management and compliance (GRC), as KPMG Netherlands, one of the world’s leading professional services firms, will provide their clients with Impero’s compliance management platform.

Today, Impero entered into a partnership agreement with KPMG Meijburg & Co (Netherlands) according to which Dutch companies will be offered the Impero platform to automate and optimize their governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC).

The partnership agreement is aligned with Impero’s strategy plan set forth in the company’s IPO documents to establish partnerships with Big4 professional services firms.
