It’s been a while since my last post – I’ve been working on several projects at the same time. One of them was announced today: Skipr’s sale to Pluxee! Even though I was no longer operational as CEO, I truly enjoyed following and supporting this transaction. There’s always a special feeling when a project you co-founded changes hands. I’m proud because it shows that the company we launched over 5 years ago is here to stay – in terms of product, market fit, and, above all, the team. 👏 Kudos to the current and former Skipr teams for creating a new movement in mobility – one that is more flexible and sustainable. You’re in great hands with Martin Rückert! 👏 Kudos to the clients who dared to challenge the traditional company car model. 🙏 And thank you to our shareholders for their trust: D'Ieteren for launching Skipr with me (poke Michaël Grandfils 😉), Belfius for supporting us from 2020, and Ayvens from 2021 onwards. The list of people to thank is far too long, but those who were part of this journey will know who they are! 📄 Article in the comments. As for my other projects? More to come soon…

Thank you Mathieu de Lophem for the energy and charism leading Skipr few years ago. You opened many doors and one of them was the right one !
