Who am I
I played basketball for 15 years and have always been in love with the sports and the world of Elite Athletes. I can't explain this feeling, but it is what drives me every day.
I wanted to create a universum of Athletes Founders, a world that is so unclear to many of us. Every evening I dedicate time to this, I want to be the best at offering this world.
I started my career in Management Consulting for a tier-1 global consultancy (Accenture Strategy). Afterwards I want to get my hands more dirty and learn on the field as I joined an early stage startup which allowed me to learn so much about this world and more specifically how important founder-market fit is.
In between, I graduated in a 2nd masters in Serious Gaming as I am curious about creating story worlds for athletes to deal with less comfortable situations. Which is why I am launching a business game and not an MBA program.
Finally, my main source of inspiration for this project is Rinus Van De Velde, he is a Belgian artists who created a universum of his own alter egos. I had a moment of clarity after visiting his exposition that I want to create my own universum for athletes to find their alter egos in the form of athlete founders. This is what drives me.
