About Robbert Budel
I combine a background in finance and operations with a deep love for creativity, design and technology. That way I help entrepreneurs and makers not only come up with ideas, but actually get them off the ground.
My career started in finance. At KPMG I worked on mergers & acquisitions, after which I moved on to in-house M&A and FP&A. That is where I learned how organisations work from the inside: financially, operationally and strategically.
Next to numbers and processes, creativity has always been a common thread. From a young age I have been busy with photography, online design and building digital experiences. I get energy from a good idea becoming visible, understandable and usable.
AI as an accelerator
With AI, a lot of work can be organised faster, smarter and better. I started early and use it daily to work out ideas, simplify processes, create content and build digital products. Not to replace people, but to make room for what really matters: vision, craft and making choices.
Turning strategy into a concrete plan
Building websites and digital brand experiences
Making processes smarter with automation and AI
Testing, refining and improving ideas faster
Not everyone has to be able to do everything. Some entrepreneurs are at their best in their craft, on the building site, in the workshop or with their clients. I gladly help with everything around it: setting direction, adding structure, sharpening the story and building a digital foundation.
