OUR STORY.

It all started in 2016, when Thomas, Remy and Sopheap crossed paths working for a global health technology provider.  As Global Commodity Leads we were part of the IT procurement cluster with over € 1B annual IT spend. With the existing gap in the market for world class IT sourcing skills, capacity and bespoke expert knowledge, Strivesource came to life.

The name Strivesource comes from our aim to deliver best in class results combined with our passion for procurement and IT.

It is our shared values and entrepreneurial mindset that brought us together. We work hard, we build relationships and we have a “one team” attitude. In the end, our way of doing things is what sets us apart as we believe there is always a way to strive for success.
