I joined the company shortly after it participated in the Startup Bootcamp HightechXL incubator program. Here I supported Karen van der Kolk in her role as Marketing Director.

The Sefa Research Project consists of a group of student consultants trained by established and prestigious consultancy firms. The participants acquire companies with a need for research in the country of destination, they write a tailored-made research proposal, conduct field research and write a subsequent report of the findings.I was part of a group of four consultants who worked for E-Crane – an industrial machinery manufacture based in Belgium. The company indicated that they were struggling to find reliable local sales representatives and customer support agents. Therefore, we developed a company profile and created and tested a structured approach to identify and vet potential parters in collaboration with the local embassy.Testimonial from E-Crane:”I was truly impressed with the final outcome of this research project. All participants clearly had a good technical and commercial understanding of our E-Crane product line and this resulted in well-documented and valuable tools that were successfully used in approaching and analyzing the Vietnamese market. The final Sefa report is not the end but rather a new and exciting starting point for E-Crane’s expansion in Asia.“
