About Bram Ellens

Bram started his professional career at Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and eBay. In 2009 he moved back to the Netherlands to fulfill his entrepreneurial dream and founded Harvest. In four years the company grew rapidly in number of consultants, revenue, clients and knowledge, becoming a European market leader in online strategy and monetization. In 2013 Harvest got acquired by Naspers, an international media company listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE).The acquisition of Harvest was the beginning of a new adventure in Bram's career: COO at OLX in Buenos Aires. As COO Bram manages all operations and product, while also being P&L responsible for the key markets in OLX portfolio; India, Brasil and South Africa. His final position within Naspers was working as Business Improvement Leader based from the Netherlands.In 2015 he decided to on a career shift and started working as an artist under the pseudonym Edward Bernsteyn. By means of self-study and a group of mentors, Bram developed himself into an early-stage-autonomous- artist. Bram was in the spotlight for the first time in 2016 with his 'Apping glow in the dark gnome installations'. He likes to exhibit outside the regular circuit, with his latest solo exhibition 'Orphans' at the World Trade Center in Amsterdam as a latest example. This is also the exhibition where Bram Ellens says goodbye to his pseudonym Edward and starts working and exhibiting under his own name again.Bram works at Bloom studios in Weesp, and had some tropical sun in the middle of 2018 while working from Curaçao at the Instituto Buena Bista. His latest exhibitions include Watou (Belgium) where the Orphans and Inevitability was displayed and het HEM (Zaanstad) where the Mad King in chains from his Robot in Captivity series was shown. 2021 is taking off like a rocket with exhibitions in London, Lowlands and a solo exhibition and Lab at Buitenplaats Doornburgh, while on top of that founding the European Lab for Robotics in Art and theater together with professor Maaike Bleeker, Engineer Rick van Dugteren and theater awesomeness Ulrike Quade. In 2023 Bram has acquired the theater rights of "Robot van de Rommelmarkt", a story by Tonke Draft. In January 2025 this music theater production will premiere at Concertgebouw Amsterdam. So yes,Bram just became a theater producer as well. Lovely!In this play the Kuka KR10 (used in many of his art installations) will play the leading role.

    Bram Ellens was born in 1978 and is a Jekyll and Hyde pur sang. After a turbulent international career as an internet entrepreneur for 10 years, in 2015 he decided to on a career shift and started working as an artist. By means of self-study and a group of mentors, Bram developed himself into an autonomous artist. He is known as an entrepreneurial artist and mainly makes theatrical sculptures and installations. Bram enjoys the big gesture, but tries to evoke a stillness in it. His works are inclusive, but not superficial. The arousal of curiosity is a common thread in all his work, it invites contact. Bram lived and worked in Curaçao (@Instituto Buena Bista) until the end of August 2018. In 2018 and 2019 his work was exhibited at The Curacao Center of Contemporary Art (Esmeralda), BigArt Bijlmer, House for Sale in Apeldoorn, NEUS in Nijmegen and Kunstenfestival Watou in Belgium.Currently Bram is working on Robots in Captivity, of which one installation could be viewed in het HEM (Jan-May 2020) while the whole kennel is on display @Buitenplaats Doornburgh in 2021.

  • Naspers Limited
    Coo And Business Improvement Leader At Naspers Classifieds/ Olx
    Naspers Limited May 2013 - Jun 2015
    Buenos Aires/ Hoofddorp
    OLX is the leading classifieds in emerging markets with over 200mln monthly visitors. As COO I was responsible for operations and product, located in Buenos Aires. Next to that I was managing the portfolio of the businesses in our key countries; India, Brasil and South Africa.As Business Improvement Leader I worked on opportunities that were innovative game changers for the Naspers Classifieds group (i.e. OLX, Dubizzle).With my team we identify two key opportunities; 1. Managing the customer lifecycle with the help of big data. In 12 months time I set-up a team of 15 people that radically changed the quality and quantity (over 4000 terabyte) of customer data and insights, set-up professional customer interaction through push notifications and personalisation, and finally developed a state of the art recommendation and sort-order algorithm to drive customer- and business value.2. Develop the TV format True Traders with Talpa. The TV format had a goal to be more efficient marketing than regular TV campaigns and change habits of customers around trading second hand goods rather than one of behaviour. The results of our pilot in Portugal proved us right: not only was the format the best viewed format in its timeslot (thanks to the great creative team of Talpa), yet also the business impact has proven to be solid. Currently the format is rolled out across the globe by Talpa.
