After graduating in Human Resources, I decided to go for a Master Degree in Social-Economic Science. I wanted to enrich my resume with a studentjob in my field of study. That's where it all really started. After receiving several job opportunities I decided to give other students the chance to grab this incredible opportunity and put my full focus on making these students match with dynamic and ambitious companies. This is the moment where High Potential Students was born. More than 80 students have found a student job thanks to HPS.
It's been a journey, but I have learned so many lessons and my network has tremendously expanded. Some call me a self-made man, since I haven't finished my study (yet). But thanks to Startit@KBC, Netwerk Ondernemen, BRYO and many other people I was capable to develop further my own ‘entrepreneurial’ skills and learn beyond the boundaries of the university. You can ask me a lot about product validation, business cases, partnerships or how to find healthy take-out food after 9pm.
The fact is that once you are in an entrepreneurial environment, you meet people. The magic about it is that we all have something in common and try to start other business at the same time.
You just have to see the opportunity.
