Hi! I am Quinten, the chair of this year's DutchSE

Hi! I am Quinten, the chair of this year's DutchSE. This year I will be focusing on providing a digital presence of DutchSE, supporting (new!) communities and collaborations in the Netherlands, pushing RISE to the next level and, last but certainly not least, make sure our board has a great time!

Besides DutchSE, I’m currently finishing up my bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering at TU Delft. Last year I took a break from this study to commit myself full time to student entrepreneurship at YES!Delft Students, as Marketing & Community director. In that year, I became fascinated by all the student initiatives regarding entrepreneurship in the Netherlands. Together with an ambitious team of students from 7 different cities, I founded RISE NL, a nationwide event to unite these local communities at least once in a year. The concept worked and will spread on! I will put my best effort in to inspire more intercity-events this year and broaden the local borders of the innovative students.

I am a curious guy who loves to engage in new activities and opportunities, meeting people, talking with them and expanding my understanding of the world in various ways. Every person has more experience or is better than you at something that they do or are talented at. I am always eager to find out more about that and see if I can offer anything valuable from my side in turn. I enjoy reading, sports and personal development. I am also an avid student of the art of negotiation. I have completed an intensive year-long training, competed in and won an international WNR 2021 negotiation competition. Currently, I am teaching the next generation of negotiators in the University of Twente and it is my mission to grow the negotiation community nationally in the Netherlands. As I have an entrepreneurial personality, I am also driven by entrepreneurial activities and people. I intend to keep growing such a community and connecting such people, so that they could add value to this world and other people through their entrepreneurial initiatives.

Hello!

Thyne here. I am currently studying my MSc at the University of Amsterdam in Artificial Intelligence. While I enjoy the field of my study I always look for opportunities to apply my knowledge and build my network.

DutchSE is the opportunity to do so on a national and international level. The next best thing to creating a startup is working together with them!

Besides my study I work as a Data Scientist at KLM Cargo where I use my knowledge in machine learning to optimize processes within the BeNeLux market.

Want to have a talk about your startup or anything related to tech or entrepreneurship? At 3 am? Just let me know, I am looking forward to it!

Hi, I’m Anik! As Program Director, I will be foc

Hi, I’m Anik! As Program Director, I will be focusing on connecting the local student entrepreneurship organisations that are part of our DutchSE community by organising events and activities. I look forward to working together with so many enthusiastic and inspiring people and getting them as excited as me about collaborating with each other to combine different experiences, interests, and viewpoints to support entrepreneurial students even more!
Last year I was the event manager of UtrechtInc Students, where I already could experience the great DutchSE community myself by for example organizing the first edition (second edition in 2022, be prepared!) of RISE NL in collaboration with many organizations from all over the Netherlands!
Besides DutchSE, I’m currently finishing up my master's in Bio Inspired Innovation at Utrecht University. I do not yet have a startup idea myself and until that happens I want to put all my enthusiasm about entrepreneurship into helping students that already have an awesome idea!

How does DutchSE influence Dutch Entrepreneurship?

How does DutchSE influence Dutch Entrepreneurship? We connect, inspire and support! By connecting the official DutchSE communities with 4 yearly meetups, including our famous bus-trip, we aim to provide the first stepping stone of connected learning and collaborative initiatives. Aside from that, we keep in touch with other student organisations from the Scandinavian countries by representing the Netherlands in the Nordic Alliance. We inspire students to enter entrepreneurship by conducting the largest student entrepreneurial event in the Netherlands: @riseeventnl . Plus mapping out all the national events on our website dutchse.nl, for you to find local entrepreneurial minds. We support the ecosystem by facilitating IP consult, raising awareness for female entrepreneurship and lobby for entrepreneurship education. Want to know more?
