As an entrepreneur, are you curious about how you can make more impact? Do you want to discover how you can create not only profit, but also a better world with your company? Then come to Wednesday, May 14, 2025 by 16:00 – 18:00 to our Round Table Meeting in the Valley on the Zuidas in Amsterdam. An exclusive gathering of driven entrepreneurs who believe in socially engaged entrepreneurship and in the importance of a sustainable future.
Our Net4kids Round Table gatherings are designed to inspire, share experiences, and refine ideas. In a small-scale and personal setting, we offer space for open conversations about how you, as an entrepreneur, can shape a societal role, both in your business and in your private life. Seated at the table are our host. Marcel van der Schaaff, ambassador of Net4kids and initiator of these meetings, and Loek van den Boog, founder of Net4kids and Chairman at General Atlantic.
Marcel shares from his investment fund Carteman Ventures his personal entrepreneurial story. In this way, he highlights, among other things, their Safe Water Project in Tanzania toe – an initiative that Carteman supports together with Net4kids. With groundbreaking BAR filters and solar solutions, local communities in the Kilimanjaro region gain access to clean and safe drinking water. This project goes beyond energy conservation; it transforms lives and builds a healthier future. Carteman Ventures invests in disruptive technologies that address global challenges in the fields of energy, climate, and sustainability. With this project, Marcel demonstrates how investing in innovative technology can contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Loek reflects on the power of entrepreneurship and philanthropy. As the founder of Net4kids, he demonstrates how 'doing good' with your company also strengthens your business. Additionally, as Chairman at General Atlantic, he is closely involved in efforts regarding ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) and sustainable growth. By investing in companies that pursue a strong social and ecological impact, he shows how people, the planet, and profit can reinforce each other.
