What inspired you to join Homeless Entrepreneur?
Homelessness and home loss must not be elements, nor signs nor results of modern society, yet they are. As an ecosystems thinker and actor I am, it is self-evident that the equilibrium of well-functioning, self-sustaining, and structural ecosystems realize economic chances for everyone to find work, home, and social inclusion. Homeless Entrepreneur is the institution that offers a pathway to chances through a well-defined asset orchestration.
What inspires you in times of crisis?
Chances are limited in a crisis; however, they are out there – it is worthwhile to identify them and transform them into an opportunity of change and re-invention as beyond the crisis they might turn into the new normal.
How do you build your network to end homelessness?
The network I am looking into is based on the diversity of actors and influencers that share a common mindset. I am interested in the ones that go beyond the obvious. Furthermore, the ones that take a look into their assets, physical and digital ones, contact driven and supporting ones. Regardless any of the four, shareable assets will be woven into the marketplace we are constructing.
What’s the best way to end homelessness?
The access and trade of shareable assets is mission critical. With the meaningful and creative use of digital means, we will be able to manage the challenge of accessing assets. I firmly believe that with the right digital setup, we turn opportunities into chances and chances into tradeable items. Next to this activity, we will be modeling the ecosystems thinking construction including economic and ecological marketplace functioning.
