Martijn, a seasoned entrepreneur, has an impressive track record of establishing prosperous ventures within the realms of software, mobile, and digital media in California. Upon returning to the Netherlands, he redirected his efforts towards global transition from a linear "take, make, and dispose" economy towards a more sustainable, circular economy, promoting material upcycling and reuse. His leadership role as the CEO of Black Bear for the past six years exemplifies this commitment; Black Bear is a trailblazer in the circular economy, extracting high-value materials from discarded tires. The firm's innovative work led it to be recognized as a WEF Technology Pioneer and a member of the Cleantech 100. Martijn concurrently holds an Entrepreneur-In-Residence position at YES!Delft, offers his expertise to the boards of Circle Economy and Parkbee, and is a regular speaker at prominent events like TEDx and Startup Fest. His academic achievements include an MSc in Applied Physics from TU Delft and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
