Kees holds a bachelor’s degree in Data Science & Artificial Intelligence from Maastricht University, complemented by a business administration minor at Rotterdam School of Management. His technical background provides a pragmatic advantage when assessing software products, data models, and the underlying mechanics that drive scalable growth.

He developed this perspective through academic work and hands-on exposure to early-stage software companies, analysing how product, positioning, and commercial execution shape long-term outcomes.

Kees first joined Airbridge Equity Partners as an intern, later taking on a full-time role as an analyst.
