Business as usual is over. Welcome to chaos.

Our systems are running on their last legs. We are on the eve of a major transformation.

I lead conversations about climate, technology and power — and about the world that comes next. On stage, in boardrooms and in the podcast Grip op de Chaos. With CarbonFix we work on breakthrough solutions for the climate.

Leading the conversation. And building.

SPEAKING

Keynotes on a world in transition

One system, nine questions: how climate, technology and power are connected — and what that means for your organisation.

MODERATING

Chair & moderator

Energy in the room: sharp questions, pace and humour. And now and then a moment to slow down.

STRATEGY

An outside view

For teams looking for direction in uncertain times. Good questions, connecting the dots, building a new approach.

BUILDING

CarbonFix

Radical funding for the builders of a new, liveable planet.

ABOUT ME

For 25 years I have worked at the intersection of politics, climate and innovation — in the Netherlands, Europe and Africa. I was managing director of the Dutch liberal party VVD and led VSO Netherlands. I co-founded CarbonFix, sit on the board of Prosper Global and chair the jury of the Trouw Duurzame 100, a Dutch sustainability ranking.

With Rens de Jong I host Grip op de Chaos, a weekly Dutch-language podcast on climate, technology and power. I work in English, Dutch and French (and Spanish, if I really try).
