About

The European Union affects many policy areas. As a former MEP, I know that many organizations are not aware of the opportunities that the European Union offers. I like to guide companies, public entities and non-profit organizations further in the European decision-making processes, advising them on opportunities to position themselves strategically on policies, regulations, financial support programs and knowledge networks. In recent years I have gained extensive European experience working for various administrations (EU, national government, province and municipalities) and working at the intersection of government and business. My passion? Making Europe work for you! Interested? Please contact me for further information: [email protected] or call directly on: +31 6 538 272 88
