#6 - Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten of The Next Web (The Cannes Edition)

For our second Cannes-episode Paul and Jeroen spoke with Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten, co-founder and CEO of The Next Web. One of the world's largest and most influential media platforms on technology, with up to almost 7 million monthly readers. Boris started his first company when he was 21, and got acquired a few years later. Today, TNW hosts yearly conferences and recently launched TQ, one of the coolest co-working spaces in Amsterdam. On the beach in Cannes we discuss the excitement of starting your own company, the importance of failing and ignoring people's advice. Special thanks to our friends at the Embassy of Dutch Creativity and Antfood Music & Sound Design in Amsterdam.
