Philippe

I would describe myself in one sentence as a passionate, strategic marketing entrepreneur with an international mindset. Next to that I am a proud father of 2 sons (Felix and Basile) and happily married to Camille. Education Since I was young I always had an interest for marketing so I started my academic bachelor in Business Science in 2002 at the university of Leuven (department Lessius) in Antwerp. After completing the bachelor we were able to choose a domain of expertise so I choose to complete my master marketing management and graduated in 2008. In 2017, after some years of working experience I decided to enroll in the eMBA program from Antwerp Management School. Expected to graduate in June 2019. Following this program was one of my best career decisions I have made. It were 2 very though years but a once in a lifetime experience where I learned a lot and got to know myself better. Experience I was lucky to start my career at AB InBev as margin pool analyst on Western Europe level in 2008. They gave me the opportunity to do a lot of different roles in the business. From sales representative to trade marketing manager to head of marketing Luxembourg. Working at AB InBev was the best school and experience I had working for a company. After the beer I went to the coffee in 2013, working as group brand manager for brands like Douwe Egberts, L'Or, ... In 2015 I decided to take a big step and became independent. I bought shares in Manderlay, a brand experience agency and took up the role as marketing director. In 2017 we sold the business and I proceeded as marketing consultant with my company Dephix doing projects at Merck, Orange, Johnson and Johnson and others.
