Jori brings a wealth of diverse experiences to the table. He’s the kind of person who thrives in both large corporations and startups. His past roles as an SAP R&D consultant, product manager in fintech, and agile practice lead at EY all share one thing in common: a passion for early-stage projects with a focus on pragmatism and quick iterations. This passion led Jori to establish venture studio Osmosis, where he identified opportunities in the financial market and turned them into in-house startups built from scratch. Osmosis became a success story, housing 18 highly motivated individuals at its peak.
At Cronos, Jori is eager to share this passion and his experiences. He believes that while everything starts with an idea, success comes from execution and bringing together the right people and partnerships.
Have you been nurturing a new concept for a while? Do you know someone outside the group who is interested in the Cronos adventure? Or do you have an employee ready to spread their wings?
Whether as a coach, sounding board, or providing hands-on support, Jori is ready to assist in turning threats into opportunities, opportunities into concepts, concepts into validation, validation into business models, and business models into funding. Every step of the way. Additionally, Jori will continue to explore collaborations with universities and colleges.
Jori is a true foodie, often spending his weekends in the kitchen or at restaurants. While he enjoys the classic Belgian, French, and Mediterranean cuisines, he also has a quirky love for frozen pickle chips!
