THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION = FOLLOWING YOUR DREAMS
Countless jobs will disappear but many new ones will emerge in their place. Students are now learning for jobs that in ten years will no longer exist. How do we prepare them for this? What does the future of education look like?

FROM GAME-ADDICT TOWARDS SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR2013-2016
MY UNCLE INSPIRED ME TO LIVE TOWARDS MY DREAMS
AFTER RUNNING A COW FARM FOR 40 YEARS HE WASN’T ABLE TO LIVE TOWARDS HIS CHILD DREAMS
HEARING THIS WAS FOR ME THE END & THE BEGINNING...

SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP STARTS WITH FIGURING OUT YOUR “WHY”.
MY WHY? HOW? WHAT? Why? Many people die before they have lived their passions. I aim to
reduce the 70% of people that have a job that drains their energy and doesn’t drive any passions or ambitions they have.
How? By organizing impactful events like hackathons & creating self-organized learning platforms. I offer people with dreams a place where they can teach themselves the 21st century skills, enable them to create their own jobs.
What? Before I become 30 years old I will train 1 million people in how to turn their ideas, curiosity and passion into a job.
Vision: to prepare and lead a society of changemakers that are able to create new jobs, tackle world problems and find purpose in their life & work.
WHAT I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT ENTREPRENEURSHIP When you have no expertise surround yourself with those who have the most expertise,
don’t read their books but connect with them and offer them a hand How to turn hackathon ideas into businesses or a job How to generate leads from old-fashioned exhibitions & startup events What the recipes are for scaling and how talented people get brainwashed by corporate
culture and good salaries Which investors are right for your startup and which are not How to use crowdfunding & crowdspeaking in combination with gamification to get a
succesful funding Why social enterprises take 2x longer to scale and generate profits than normal
businesses How a great leader with a vision can setup a million dollar business in a very short time

HOW CAN WE AVOID ANOTHER BIG JOB CRISIS? #ADAPTING TO #CHANGE Make sure SME’s and corporates adapt fast enough to technology, culture
and system disruption Help freelancers and startups with scaling, so they create new jobs Make Creativity, critical thinking, curiousity and problems solving the
centre of trainings and education Allow people to FAIL (First attempt in learning) Transform your corporate into a social responsible business Get a MTP and make sure people know about it and are able to join
you
HOW CAN CORPORATES SURVIVE? Change from efficiency organization that is driven by short term goals towards a learning
organization with one big bold vision that people want to pursue. Tesla Create a startup with only one goal: Eating its mothers organization. Eneco Give employees the autority over their own work, with complete transparancy about
income and output streams like Zappos does. Source startups that are about to disrupt your core products and partner up with them and
implement their solutions. Jack Young Network Group Offer employees 20% of their working day free time to work on their own ideas and
projects. Google Make hackathons part of the organization both internal and external hackathons. Github,
ING & Capgemini Create your own school/living lab where future thinkers can experiment full-time with latest
technology, best mentors, new methodologies and tools & unlimited resources. Singularity University & X-Prize
