Entrepreneurial Activities
Company Building
SlimBieden develops statistical models and data-driven property reports to support private home buyers in the Dutch housing market. The platform provides price predictions and bidding guidance for residential real estate transactions. I co-founded the company and hold a 50% equity stake. Together with my co-founder, I set the strategic direction of the company, while as lead of the model development team I oversee the modeling workflow, maintain the underlying data infrastructure, and guide the team’s research agenda for continuous model improvement.
dPT Wiskunde was founded on the conviction that everyone can understand mathematics with the right motivation and support. I co-founded the company with a 50% equity stake and helped set its strategic direction. We opened locations in Amsterdam, Delft, Rotterdam, Tilburg, and Utrecht, each developed as a local venture with its own teachers, school relationships, and management team. In 2017, the company won the Golden Unit award for most innovative start-up and was featured on Dutch national television in a segment on its educational vision and ambition. It later grew into an organization with approximately 100 teachers and was sold to StudieHub on August 4, 2026.
FBSB was founded as the sister company of dPT Wiskunde, extending the same educational philosophy to university-level mathematics, statistics, and econometrics. I co-founded the company and held a 50% equity stake until leaving. FBSB provided group tutoring for economics and econometrics students, supported by podcasts and video tutorials that we recorded to complement the in-person sessions and help students study at their own pace.
