Speaking Engagements in 2022

If you are reading this, I want to sincerely thank you for visiting my personal website and read my blogposts. Unfortunately, I have neglected the blog section of my website. Like many others, I substituted posting here by posting on my social media channels. The last year I have enjoyed LinkedIn the most and have been posting there almost daily. Including my book reviews. In case you like that kind of content from me, please connect with me on LinkedIn:

But I do not want to give up on my personal website and blog. In all my independent consultancy work that I do for other brands and companies I keep on emphasizing that it is so important the be digitally independent. Do not rely on any third-party platform. Remember that they own your content and ‘customers’. Your friends and followers on the social media networks are friends and followers on lease. They are not yours; they are the network’s connections. Therefore, I have decided to publish this post today:

Usually, I post here about my activities and things that interest me. We are finally leaving COVID-19 behind us and we are going back to the old normal from the new normal. This means physical trade fairs, summits, conferences, guest lectures, fora, and events. YEAH! So, I have been booked for three fun occasions in 2022:

May 2022: Guest Lecturer at EBS / CREA in Geneva, Switzerland. For the third time I have been invited by leading Swiss business school EBS to teach a course as a guest lecturer to their Masters students of the International Luxury Management course. I love working with students as it is so gratifying to share knowledge, but equally fun to learn from the young critical thinkers. For more info, visit the EBS website.

June 2022: Public speaking engagement at eCommerce Trade Fair. For the 4th time I have been invited to speak during the Webwinkel Vakdagen, the leading Dutch trade fair for the eCommerce industry. I have attended the first edition of this fair fifteen years ago and have visited every year. It’s amazing to see how it grew from one little room into a massive fair. I am very humbled to be invited every time to speak at this event and get a lot of energy from the room and the visitors. I love the interaction during the lecture with the room, but also afterwards during the one-on-one when visitors come up to me to ask specific questions and advice. For more info about my presentation, please visit my page on their official website HERE.

September 2022: Public speaking engagement at "What's going on in [R]etailing?! 2022" in Maarssen, the Netherlands. The title of my presentation is: “Hoe een klassieke juwelier de (r)etail ervaring online net zo persoonlijk maakt als in de winkel sinds 2007” which translates into: "How a traditional jeweller made it's online retail experience as person as they do in-store since 2007"). You can read more about my presentation on the page dedicated to my presentation on the official site HERE.

Hope to see you at one of these events. Please touch base with me beforehand and/or during the event. I love meeting new people, sharing knowledge and learn new things.

Cool Music Clip: Jean-Paul De Roover

On April 8th, 2009 I posted a cool music clip by Oren Lavie here on my blog. Today I received an email from Canada asking me to check a video clip... Well, if you agree with me that Oren Lavie's video clip is amazing you will love this on:

"Fix" by Jean-Paul De Roover

Jean-Paul De Roover is a solo artist from Thunder Bay, ON, Canada. This is a stop animation music video that his photographer girlfriend Shannon Lepere shot for his song "Fix".  It used over 2,022 still photographs and over 600 bandaids!
