Bax is strengthening its Dutch operations with the appointment of Tom Meijerink, who joins the Utrecht office in April 2025.
In his new role, Tom will co-lead the management of Bax Netherlands alongside Kees Joosten, while continuing his position as chairman of Branchevereniging Bodemenergie. This expansion broadens Bax Netherlands’ expertise in innovation strategy, collaborative R&D, programme and process management, and knowledge of key transition areas such as water, circular bio-based economy, and energy. With an enhanced set of services, Bax is better positioned to support Dutch clients in navigating complex challenges and unlocking opportunities for growth.
Building on a legacy of innovation
Bax has deep roots in the Netherlands, having been established in The Hague back in 1984. Over the past four decades, we have collaborated with leading Dutch and European clients and partners to drive innovation across multiple sectors.
Bax has an impressive track record of tackling today’s biggest social challenges, from urban health and mobility to nature restoration, circularity, and energy. By bringing together knowledge, people, and resources, we can really make ideas happen. I’m excited to contribute my experience in strategic collaboration, process management, and program management.
– Tom Meijerink, Director of Bax Netherlands
A stronger presence for greater impact
This development aligns with Bax’s broader pan-European growth strategy. The Utrecht office will collaborate closely with teams in Barcelona, Brussels, Cambridge, and Düsseldorf, enabling Dutch clients to benefit from both local expertise and a European perspective. With a focus on mission-driven innovation, Bax is committed to accelerating transformative initiatives that address today’s most pressing social and environmental challenges.
Tom is a truly complementary addition to our team of innovation consultants. Bax now brings unique knowledge and expertise to drive innovation and accelerate transitions — from the conceptualisation of ideas through collaborative R&D, to the implementation and scaling of innovations. With Tom on board, we strengthen our capabilities in developing and managing complex consortia, programmes, and projects.
