#powerofthecrowd

We believe in the power of the collective. People learn in large groups. A better world starts with yourself, but by using the power of the crowd we can accelerate on a large scale and realize a real movement.

#changetheworldplaying

People learn by doing, and act when it's fun! With our gamified engagement programs, organizations and sustainable movements can activate us on the most important societal issues of this century.

#passionateworkstyle

Reliable and committed partner. With a tight PM-style, flexibility and high quality, we work on sustainable development. We are continuously looking to advance and develop our games, programs and community.

We do what we believe. And we believe in what we do.

Paul Citroen
Board member strategic finance
   About Paul
With a background in IT and human capital (he owned a student agency he started during his studies Computer Science), Paul has a wide knowledge of finance and human resources. Being a non-conventional entrepreneur, he nowadays uses his experience and creativity to advise start-ups and scale-ups. Preferably companies that use the possibilities of the digital age to create a healthy planet, happy people and a sustainable future. That is why he is part of the advisory board of The 2B Collective. That, plus the fact that he likes the people behind the company. When asked what he does for a living, he usually answers: “I do great things with great people”. He finds both at The 2B Collective.

Maurits Groen 
Board member impact strategy
   About Maurits
Positively showing what can be done to bring about a more just and sustainable society is way more motivating and effective to motivate and mobilise people than focussing on doom & gloom stories. That its why some fifteen years ago I decided to transform my consultancy and communications company (est. 1982) into a platform to launch and (co-)found businesses in food, energy and products -all ’sustainable’ of course. The positive and ambitious spirit of the experienced The 2B Collective and their skillful way of operating therefor appeals to me very much. That is why I wholeheartedly cooperate with them and want to support them wherever I can.
