For this reason, they lose a lot of information and a lot of time when managing internal incidents andcustomer complaints.This problem gets even bigger when the entire supply chain (including supermarkets, big corporates, factories…) is involved in the incident resolution process. Everyone works on their own closed system, and the exchange of information about incidents is done through mountains of emails and endless phone calls. That makes collaboration and communication chaotic.As a result, incidents are never fully resolved and factories will keep having the same issues without acting on root causes; which means that large amounts of resources are wasted.

International entrepreneurship inspired me since I was young. Investing and leading people caught my significant interest in my early twenties. Technology followed. Lacking a convincing idea to start a business, I looked for opportunities to gain experience.After an invitation to start working at Abn Amro Bank I found my ideal personaldevelopment path. I even let go of my earlier dreams during 8 years as I worked in various roles in investment services, strategy, technology and global product approval governance.When I was 29 I defined an automated solution to make high quality wealth management accessible and affordable for individuals and help them safeguard a healthy financial future. On my 30th birthday I walked into the office of my managing director where I resigned after months of careful consideration, selecting co-founders and build a business plan during the nights and weekends, to start realising my dream to build Pritle.After having laid the foundation in 2014, me and my business partners acquired investment firm Fundix in 2015, which we transformed into Pritle.At its peak, Pritle became the largest independent online wealth manager of continental Europe. In 2017 we sold the company to BinckBank for €12.5 million and helped to integrate the business. Inspired to build another company, in 2018, I resigned from Binck and traveled across Latin America for 2,5 months. I realised I wanted to switch industries and make a positive impact on sustainable life on earth. After considering various ideas and other opportunities, a greatly challenging option made it to #1. In 2019 me and my wife Evelien Bunnik-Remmelts launched the next generation consumer marketplace Whoppah for secondhand design furniture and art. We welcomed a group of highly experienced investors and entrepreneurs supporting Whoppah in various ways. After 3 years we are proud to trade double digit millions of euros per year with insane monthly growth rates.It is an extremely valuable journey perfecting our product-market fit, striving for excellence and accelerating growth internationally.
