Since August 2023, I’ve been working at Cultuur+Ondernemen, the leading knowledge platform for entrepreneurship in the cultural and creative sector, as well as a financier for cultural entrepreneurs. I’m also a sommelier and work freelance for a theater company, where I handle the finances.

Cultuur+Ondernemen supports cultural organizations and independent artists and creatives who want to pursue entrepreneurship, helping them thrive so that society can fully benefit from the power of culture. We collaborate with governments and funding bodies to maximize the impact of their cultural policies and investments.

We share knowledge, connect our target groups with a network of external experts, advisors, and mentors, and link them to other stakeholders both inside and outside the sector.

Our focus is on three key areas: governance, business development, and financing—expertise in these areas is crucial for successful entrepreneurship. We also offer funding in the form of cultural loans.
