WHATS THE CONNECTION HOW DO YOU TURN A PASSION

BETWEEN LEGO AND LETTUCE?
A huge Lego collection!
That was Maartens dream as a kid.
Today, hes still creating all kinds of constructions.
In particular, his own company and a system
for growing vegetables from leafy greens to
medicinal plants indoors, using hydroponics
with advanced LED lighting. In addition to
founding the company, he now serves as
COO attending to the operational parts of
the business.
An entrepreneur at heart, Maarten studied
marketing and applied economics with a focus
on strategy and finance. Then, feeling he still
didnt have all the knowledge he needed to start
and run his own company, he joined the Vlerick
Masters in General Management programme.
FOR ART INTO A CAREER?
From her experience, Sarah would say:
add Vlerick knowledge to your skillset.
As Sarahs childhood passion for art evolved
into a fascination with the excitement of selling
art at auction, she dreamed of being involved in
the mystery and glamour that surround the big
international auction houses.
But when she finished her Art History degree,
she felt that something was still missing: The
business of art is a field in itself, she says, and I
felt I needed an extra skill set to enter the world
I had in mind. So I decided to do the Masters in
General Management at Vlerick.
Today, Sarah works at Christies auction house in
London using data analysis, customer profiling
and negotiation skills (skills I wouldnt have if it
wasnt for Vlerick) every day in her dream job.
