It is particularly fun to look at successful companies as an experienced SME entrepreneur, banker and business mentor. With my extensive experience within the BSCO group I can form a good judgment about the candidates who participate in the entrepreneur award on Voorne Putten.

What do you think is the most important quality of an entrepreneur (and why)?

The profile of a successful entrepreneur is that he/she has a goal in mind. Pursues this with passion and focus and offers added value to his/her environment (customers, employees, stakeholders). With these characteristics you are a winner!
