I am a strong believer that research is not solely interesting to academics. As such, I founded and lead a start-up, Spire, aimed at defining and rating social performance in real estate, putting knowledge into practice.
Previously, I spearheaded the HealthBuild2022 conference, in which experts in the field share their insights and stimulate change to improve the quality of the environment we spend so much time in. Furthermore, I was the proud organizer of the SBE Science Slam, in which young aspiring researchers present their research in a fun and relaxed off-campus setting to an unknowledgeable audience.
Spire - The Social Rating in Real Estate
Spire - The Social Rating in Real Estate
Spire has pioneered a quantified recognition of social performance in the real estate industry, innovating a rating system to integrate social with financial value. Spire’s uniquely full-spectrum evaluation includes a property’s impact on its residents, workforce, management, and community, with benchmarking at both the portfolio and asset levels. Developed within the industry and backed by science, Spire’s sector-weighted rating system and resultant actionable insights serve as critical decision-making tools for property owners, operators, and investors.

HealthBuild2022
As the organiser of the first edition of HealthBuild2022, I spearheaded the international conference aimed to connect industry, policy, and research on the impact of buildings on their occupants. We succeeded with 100+ attendees, 25+ international speakers, and many great connections made.
Speakers included keynotes by Harvard Business School and WELL institute.
While we shape our buildings, our buildings in turn shape us: the indoor environment in which we work, learn, play and live affect our health, productivity, and wellbeing. HealthBuild 2022 will bring together Europe’s experts on this issue, providing a fertile mix of academic knowledge and industry experience.
PhD Science Slam
The PhD Science Slam aims to strengthen the connection between academia and the outside world, and provides future academics with a platform in which they are confronted with an unknowledgeable audience. Presenters train their presentation skills in a popular and accessible way, ensuring optimal dissemination of their own valuable research.
After my appointment as head, responsible for further development and organization, the Science Slam has doubled in size and tripled in budget. Before COVID-19, we hosted 4 presenters per Slam, for a growing audience of currently around 100 guests.
Working with the approval of the SBE Dean, GSBE Director, and UM rector, the current aim is to extend the dissemination of knowledge by including different faculties.
