“When we hired Rutger as a presenter, he came up with solutions for problems before we even spotted them. Cars and tech aren’t cold subjects in the hands of Rutger. With his warmth, wit and curiosity he elevates every video. Did you know he can even make German policewomen smile?”

“Since 2014 Rutger is our presenter for the Heden 1-night-exhibitions. His open and curious attitude brings out the best in the artists and speakers, makes complex matters relatable, involves the audience and lifts the evening to a higher level.”

“Rutger writes for FD Persoonlijk (the Financieel Dagblad’s weekendmagazine) on a regular basis. He comes up with original, creative ideas for articles about tech and gadgets. He likes to test products himself to assure an independent opion. That is what we like at FD.”

“Rutger is one of the most open-minded, social and creative people I’ve ever met. Moreover, he possesses the ability to relay his considerable knowledge of arts and ads onto the people around him. And he’s a nice guy.”

“As a regular contributor at Bright Rutger is one of our defining voices. Great associative skills, well informed on relevant developments, quick to gain insight and with that contagious sparkle in his eyes. It’s a joy working with him”

“In every possible way Rutger is a one of a kind man / father / husband / child / business partner / friend. I don’t know anybody who approaches a car, his son, a job or rebuilding his house with the same knowledge, enthusiasm, thoroughness and humour.”
