People We've Worked With
What they say about working together on AI projects
Tom Compaijen
Crisis Communication Expert
Crisis Communication Specialist
With The AI Factory, we quickly developed a smart and effective AI product that perfectly aligns with modern crisis communication. Efficient, purposeful, and high-quality. Great collaboration with Maarten, we could move quickly and it took relatively little time from my end.
Tamas Erkelens
Interim Manager ABD-flex
Municipality of Amsterdam
Maarten turns ideas into products immediately. He created a model using AI to direct Amsterdam citizens' reports to the right place. By demonstrating what worked, bureaucratic discussions disappeared. He led a team and organization into the future. Currently, the Signals model is used by more than 25 municipalities and 3 million Dutch citizens.
Cady Kielmann
Innovation Strategist
BNNVARA
Maarten worked with us on an AI research project for radio. He built an amazing prototype with AI features that we designed together with the editorial team. Working with Maarten was great: he communicates clearly, thinks along, responds quickly, and always comes up with creative solutions. A real hands-on person who likes to get things done!
Jan van Zomeren
Deputy Director of Communication
Ministry of Justice
We asked Maarten to give an inspiring talk about AI possibilities and get the group working on concrete AI assignments. Overall a great success. Maarten knows AI from multiple angles, presents with flair and concretely with a sense of realism. The group also appreciated that Maarten himself operates "the machine". That creates trust. And now we're enthusiastic about AI (and Maarten 😉).
Danny De Jonge
Head of Department Methods and Cost Expertise
Rijkswaterstaat
Maarten gave a very engaging presentation on the fundamentals of AI and the opportunities and possibilities AI offers for Rijkswaterstaat. The audience found it very interesting and it certainly lowered the threshold for them to start working with it themselves.
Robert Glebbeek
CEO
Goudappel
During our management days, where we discussed the impact of digital transformation on our work, employees, and customers, Maarten provided us with a realistic view and expectation about AI and digitalization. Maarten brings insights and experience that answer your questions, especially regarding where we stand in this transition and where it could lead! Thanks again for the session!
Michael Radvany
