Konga,Sweden

Summary

I come from an entrepreneurial family, my father and mother had a jewelry company. From there I followed the training in retail. After working in events for almost 7 years, I started my own company in giving teambuilding trainings throughout the Netherlands. Learned a lot at all those companies and government companies. Since 2023 I emigrated with my wife to the south of Sweden. There we bought an old school and build several spaces where we give trainings and coaching sessions. Because it takes time to set up we have space to do simple work here in the area and learn the language and the culture. So that we can be of significance in that area as well.
