Romaike Slikker

Being passionate about design and sustainability, I hold a background in Industrial Design Engineering. My entrepreneurial journey began with co-founding WasteBase after my bachelor, a startup focusing on circular material repurposing. After participating in the 10K Programme in 2021, I discovered my interest in entrepreneurship. As the Project Lead for the Explore Pillar at the Venture Centre, I'm dedicated to integrating entrepreneurial competencies into courses across AUAS. I find immense joy in guiding and collaborating with student-entrepreneurs, believing that an entrepreneurial mindset is a valuable asset for professionals in any field. My mission is to inspire and empower the next generation of innovative thinkers.
