AI as leverage, not hypeThe sessions Alex delivered within the growth program showed that AI is much more than a toy or gimmick. It is a lever for entrepreneurs who want to combine speed, scale and sharp choices. His approach is concrete: what works today, what tools should you test, how do you make AI work for you?
From experimentation to directionEven students who were already using AI discovered deeper insights they hadn't taken advantage of before. Through Alex's strategic perspective, they learned to weigh their choices better, assess risks differently and exploit opportunities faster.
A quote that stuck: "Staying behind is a bigger risk than sharing data."

As project leader in transition to digitalization and program manager at De Noorderlingen, Jelmer van der Wijk saw the effect of Alex's sessions up close. His testimonial speaks volumes about the practical applicability as well as the strategic depth of the content.
What this award really meansThe award is a snapshot in time. But the real value is in the confirmation that strategic thinking pays off. That entrepreneurs who dare to make choices at the intersection of technology and business are going to make a difference.
