Qlik Partner Ambassadors: Angelika Klidas and Barry Harmsen

We’re honored to share that our colleagues Angelika Klidas and Barry Harmsen were named Qlik Partner Ambassadors! Qlik selects Ambassadors for their technical expertise and passion for the Qlik product portfolio.

Angelika Klidas

Angelika is Bitmetric’s Operation Manager and Data Literacy Evangelist. She loves to inspire people and organizations to grow their Business Intelligence & Analytics maturity. In addition, Angelika teaches at the University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, where she shares her knowledge and passion of the field of Data & Analytics with her students.

“I am proud and honored to be named Qlik Partner Ambassador once again. I love the program and see how the technology and the vision of Data Literacy is evolving in various ways. Joined by other Ambassadors we are able to actually bring value from a technological and Data Literacy perspective.“

Barry Harmsen

Barry Harmsen is Bitmetric’s CEO. Originally from a background of traditional BI and Data Warehousing, in 2007 Barry made the switch to Qlik and never looked back. You may know Barry as the co-author of QlikView for Developers, developer of SenseTheme, speaker at the Masters Summit for Qlik or his articles on the QlikFix blog. Barry was part of the Qlik Luminary program from 2014 until its switch to a customer-only program in 2021.

“I very much appreciate being part of the Qlik Partner Ambassador program. The Ambassador program allows for a much closer collaboration with Qlik as well as other Qlik enthusiasts. As a result, it brings tremendous value. Not just to myself as a professional, but also to our clients, colleagues and company.”
