Lotte: ‘At TMC, we truly believe in the power of entrepreneurship. People who work with us are technical, but also have the entrepreneurial spirit. That’s why we call them ‘Employeneur’. Technology is a means to solve global challenges, and that’s exactly what we’re trying to do. In the Netherlands we have nearly 600 Employeneurs going on to 1000 worldwide, who work for diverse ambitious customers, but also get possibilities to accelerate their own business ideas. And as manager of our innovation lab, I help them wherever I can. I really love my job, turning ideas into business.’

Danny: ‘A lot of companies say they stimulate entrepreneurship, but TMC is the first company where I really experience it. Together with my team, I’m creating a spy robot which is called ‘Throwabot’. This robot can be used for data collection in situations that are dangerous for people. For example: what if there is a hostage taking place. They can throw our wireless robot – that is very quiet – inside, to see what is happening there. This robot can save lives, because emergency services can better evaluate the situation before actually sending people in. Last month we’ve registered our startup at the Kamer van Koophandel, so we’re doing well!’
