Talk to us about Martijn Arets

In Detail

Particularly young companies that have started as outsiders and by harnessing the unrealised potential of the internet and technology, become international players in their own right. In 2010, Martijn decided to leave his job as a marketing and communications manager and drive through Europe and interview the leaders behind 20 of the biggest European brands. Over five months, strong-minded Martijn took his Volkswagen T2 to the leaders of Adidas, Lego, Alessi, Manchester United and Skype to name a few. He then took these experiences to form the basis of his book ‘Brand Expedition’ which is both Dutch and English. Martijn was named among the ’40 European Young Potential Leaders Under 40′ and was also named by Sprout as Best Entrepreneur of 2011.
