Founder of Stripe
Breda Area, Netherlands
I started Rogier Webdesign three and a half years ago. My specialty was building custom made websites (for my clients.)
A year ago business really took off. That year me and my business partner Stijn Zeeman started Stripe Internet Solutions. Rogier Webdesign is one of our concepts. Rogier makes high quality websites at low costs. Due to our unique concept we are able to create your website in a relatively short time. In addition to making your website, we provide workshops in how to manage your own content and website appearance.
Besides giving workshops, we are also providing our clients with training in Joomla CMS. This program helps you to manage and control your website(s).
These hands on trainings are made and given in unison with Byte Internet, a partner in web services. These very popular! trainings are given in Amsterdam.
Within the context "Never eat alone" we joined a network club for young entrepreneurs called Bizzion. My partner Stijn is running branch in our town Breda in the Netherlands One of the fun things about Bizzion is that it's a club of young businessmen and women aged under 28. We organise meeting where we invite a successful (young) businessman or woman to talk about and present their business, the road they travelled en obstacles they have overcome. In this way we inspire each other and learn from people our age and interest groups.
My Goal in life is to "Think out of the box"..... To be creative, to respect others and their work and to keep on improving myself and our business!

Open Coffee events (http://www.opencoffeeclub.org) are regular informal meet-ups for entrepreneurs, investors and people interested in entrepreneurship. Main focus: the web.
The idea is that there is one place and time where people can have a coffee before going to work and might meet some interesting folks.
