Timo Pentner’s Post

Good morning from Paris. I'm very excited to be at #TradeTech today. Please feel free to ping me if you are there and want to catch up. I'm happy to talk about things related to EuroCTP.

I'm thrilled to share a significant update on my professional journey. Over the past three incredible years, I've had the privilege of working with Bram Bastiaansen and the phenomenal supervisory board at CerQlar. Their trust and the opportunity to contribute to the growth of this remarkable company have been truly rewarding. I also want to express my deepest gratitude to the entire CerQlar team for their dedication and hard work. Leaving the company in the capable hands of Anton Fedorov, Martin Edling Andersson, and the amazing team we’ve built together fills me with confidence for CerQlar’s continued success. Now, as I look towards the future, I am beyond excited to announce my next venture. I have decided to join EuroCTP B.V. as Chief Technology Officer, collaborating with Eglantine Desautel to spearhead the establishment of this ground-breaking company and bring the European consolidated tape (CT) to reality. EuroCTP aims to participate in the future selection process for the provision of a CT for equities in the European Union. We will strive to provide the best solution for the provision of a consolidated tape in the European Union. The company aims at fostering transparency, fairness and access to market data for all investors by providing a fully consolidated view of the European equity and ETFs markets. I am honored to be part of this transformative journey and look forward to contributing to EuroCTP's mission. Together, we will shape the future of market data accessibility and transparency in the European Union. Thank you for your continued support, and I am eager to share more updates as we embark on this exciting adventure!

Operational risk ... nobody likes to talk about it but it exists. I really appreciate Philipp Volgger from Alperia Group opening Pandorra's box about this important topic. Errors and risk have increased significantly due to volatility and price levels going up and issues in your GoO processes are more costly than ever before. Very much looking forward to this one. Please take this opportunity to learn from one of the best!

We are SOC2 Type2 certified!! I am very proud of this significant achievement in the process of growing and scaling CerQlar. Our clients' data security and our platform's robustness are pivotal to our success as a post-trade management solution in the renewable electricity certificate market. Thank you very much to all partners involved that helped us achieve this milestone - Drata, Schneider Downs, and Xebia. And of course, Thank you to all the people involved - Anton Fedorov, Rafael Martins, Manuela Rodriguez, Paolo Carner, MSc - We all learned a lot in the process 😀 #soc2 #security #saassecurity #guaranteesoforigin #eac

We are looking for an interim CISO for the next 6-12 months of cooperation to help CerQlar with: - Taking our MDM setup to the next level - Setup a DLP process - Conducting gap analysis and providing recommendations for ISO 27001:2022 and GDPR compliances (we are just steps away from SOC2, but would like to move even further) - Working with our engineering team on hardening security practices within our SDLC Do a bunch of other exciting security work to make CerQlar even more reliable! If you are a #cybersecurity expert or if you have a recommendation, don't hesitate to reach out!

As the REC Market Meeting is about to begin, I would like to extend a warm invitation to join us at the CerQlar booth. Our team is excited to connect with industry leaders and experts in the field of renewable energy, and we can’t wait to showcase our new Position View tool 🚀 So, come and join us in Amsterdam! Let’s explore new opportunities in the REC market together. DM me to schedule a meeting or stop by our booth to learn more about how we can help your business scale. #RMM2023 #renewableenergy #event #RECs #EACs

I am very excited to attend and speak at this year's REC Market Meeting in Amsterdam organized by RECS Energy Certificate Association. The event is sold out already and we at CerQlar are looking forward to showcasing how far the platform has come since our first REC Marketing Meeting last year. And for me personally, to talk about the need for more innovation and automation in order to maximize renewable opportunities in the global EAC markets. See you there!!

Very happy for and proud of our great collaboration and partnership with Alperia Group. I invite you to read our first case study which highlights the value CerQlar is adding to the GO market across Europe. More to come!

Our next webinar is coming up! We are very excited to speak with Laura Malinen at Grexel about the benefits (if not necessity) of API enabled registries and how this will be an important step in the evolution of market infrastructure in the GO markets across Europe. Hope you can join this very interesting and important session.
