Professional background

I have 25 years of experience in national and cross-border business structurings.

I advised on the first ever cross-border demerger in the Netherlands in 2008 and coordinate the implementation of numerous cross-border structurings each year. 

I assist start-ups, fast-growing companies, investors and multinationals in the technology sector in business structurings, governance and corporate compliance, joint ventures, investments and takeovers. 

I have also advised several tech accelerators and a crowdfunding platform on fund structuring and the participating start-ups on business structuring and capital investments.
