Tim’s link with Marktlink
“Entrepreneurs are like a clan. They often look at issues a bit differently, they do not keep their opinions to themselves and they are more willing than most to take (calculated) risks. An entrepreneur wants to get things moving and through that creates added value and jobs, often at a regional level, sometimes global. The buying or selling of a business is one of the key moments in the career of an entrepreneur. To come up with attractive transactions in collaboration with successful entrepreneurs and to execute those in intensive and sometimes intense projects, is what I am fortunate enough to do every day. I am extremely happy that Marktlink has been able to convince its target group that we can be of huge added value to our clients in projects of this type over the years. And I am just as happy that we have succeeded in attracting enterprising, smart and driven professionals that have helped to build our successful firm in recent years.”
