Daniel is an aspiring entrepreneur who recently graduated from the ‘Global Project and Change Management’ bachelor programme at the University of Windesheim, a programme that he chose because he wishes to create a better world where people are better connected with each other and with the natural environment that sustains us.

Rather than being dissuaded when it comes to the scope of what needs to be achieved within the subject of Environmental Protection, Daniel sees the challenges that we all face as an opportunity for growth and development. As a young person, Daniel believes the younger generation carry a heavy burden to make their future as bright as possible, which is why he works so hard at developing sustainable products through his company.
