Our story,
our motivation

Mark has over a decade of experience in the financial services industry. As an operating partner, he delivers propositions - from strategy to execution. Before launching his new venture Momentum, Mark was the Chief Commercial Officer of FIBR, a new digital bank focused on helping West-European SMEs succeed. He played an instrumental role in developing the bank's strategy, which was approved by the Dutch National Bank and led to an investment of EUR 70 million in equity. He also played a crucial role in executing the plan, surpassing the ambitious business target by more than 30%. Mark co-founded New10, where he served as Chief Commercial Officer. He was responsible for sales, service, branding, and operations in this role.

He successfully translated the company's strategy into an execution roadmap, leading New10 to become the number-one online lender in the Netherlands within 12 months. The company signed up thousands of entrepreneurs with a net promoter score of 50+. Mark and his team established a solid foundation for scaling the business by utilizing state-of-the-art marketing technology.

Before New10, he led in delivering ABN AMRO's Group strategy, where he started as a senior analyst and quickly rose to senior strategist. This strategy led to a change in the top structure of ABN AMRO Group, the operating system model, and a focus on innovation. One of the initiatives Mark helped bring to life was New10. His career has always been centered on blending strategy and execution. This resulted in significant experience in delivering successful digital transformation. He has an innate curiosity for his profession, which drives him to improve constantly.

Kim has been an entrepreneur in the digital products and services industry for over a decade. He is passionate about building teams and digital businesses that deliver a lasting impact. During his last venture (successful exit of a digital agency), Kim managed 110+ full-time employees and generated over 10 million in revenue.

Over the years, Kim has advised many companies on a strategic level. He excels at being the operating partner, bridging the gap between digital strategy and the actionable digital roadmap, and being accountable for delivering real value.

Kim co-founded Momentum, firmly believing that the digital consulting industry can be improved by shifting from an hourly to a value-based model. This model aligns objectives and incentives with the customer, allowing for co-ownership of outcomes and sharing the costs of failure and rewards of success. It delivers real results instead of just outputs. As an operating partner, Kim can deliver this value and take calculated risks in digital transformation based on his expertise and experience.

Kim still enjoys coding in his free time. His latest project involves building a high frequency blockchain trading algorithm in Rust, a low-level programming language. His ambition for the next ten years is to deliver 1 billion in value through digital transformations.
