Inauguration Ageeth van Maldegem: 'Entrepreneurs for the Future'

24-05-2024
HZ Vlissingen

CELTH-thememanager Leisure offer Ageeth van Maldegem will be inaugurated as professor (lector) in New Business Models at HZ University of Applied Sciences on Friday 24 May. The ceremony will take place during an inspiring event focusing on sustainable entrepreneurship: 'Entrepreneurs for the Future'. Ageeth is one of three CELTH theme managers on the Leisure Offer theme where she focuses on business models

With her research group at HZ, Ageeth researches how we create new business models and how they become an engine for dynamic, broad-based prosperity. In her inaugural address, she will elaborate on this. 

 The inauguration takes place at the HZ in Vlissingen and consists of several parts. Besides Ageeth's speech, there will be keynote speakers around the themes of stakeholder participation, the interpretation of new revenue models and impact in the region. We expect a number of well-known names and entrepreneurs, including at least Erik Stam: professor of Strategy, Organisation and Entrepreneurship at Utrecht University.

Changemaking Award

During the event, special attention will be paid to the changemakers of HZ. Changemakers contribute to our social missions in exceptionally entrepreneurial ways. They are therefore an important source of inspiration and change. Every year, the New Business Models group makes a prize available to such a changemaker. It may be a student, lecturer, researcher, employee or former student. The award will be presented for the first time on 24 May.
