I am Dutch, based in Vleuten near Utrecht. After a 25 year career in the corporate world with companies like Cadbury, LEGO, Société Générale and Amway I decided in 2019 that it was time to start something for myself and share my knowledge gained in the corporate world with start-ups that I try to invest in at the early stages of their development. At the moment I have a small portfolio of which KRNWTR+ (sales of water dispensers to minimise the plastic soup), The Bulb Farmers (e-commerce flower bulb sales to the end-consumer), Treeps GmbH (an entertainment app that answers the question “what to do”) and Tvoe Mesto (a dark kitchen project) are the most successful ones.

Specifieke investeerdersvoorkeuren:

Prefer to invest into projects that have a business idea that also has a significant social impact. Also like projects where I can help the team with my experience, background and contacts and be a little more then only a shareholder/investor.
