Ramon was a keynote speaker at our Executive Forum in London this year. It's always refreshing to find a speaker who can, not only entertain the audience and inspire them with new insights, but who will also take the trouble to think about the specific impacts on your own industry and tailor his presentation appropriately. A pleasure working with you!

John Nurthen, Executive Director of Global Research – SIA

Ramon spoke at the GBTA Conference in Frankfurt to an international audience of around 1000 business travel professionals. He was a resounding success - his message was fresh, relevant and actionable. His delivery was entertaining and professional and he was a delight to work with. Ramon took time to understand our audience and our brief. he adapted his presentation accordingly and was pleasant and professional throughout. I throughly enjoyed working with him and hope to do so again in the future.

We have had the pleasure of hosting ing. Ramon Vullings during an Innovation Summit hosted by NASA. Ramon is an electrifying and passionate speaker, and his talk on the topic of cross industry innovation and creativity was one of the most well received talks at the summit. Participants were able to gain a fresh perspective on innovation from his abundant expertise on the topic coupled with latest research, statistics, and good humor.

We hired Ramon for giving a key note speech at our ANVR “need for speed” conference in Abu Dhabi. Being the first speaker at a four day’s conference he immediately set the tone for an inspiring conference. Ramon was inspiring, giving lots of new insights to our audience, combined facts and figures with lots of humour and really connected to the audience. Ramon was the perfect start of a perfect conference.

Frank Oostdam, Director – ANVR

I’m very happy with the professional moderation by Ramon during our 3-day Global Sales meeting. Our team consists of people from many different countries and cultures. With his energetic style and various work formats, Ramon manages to keep the people motivated to work on tough business items, while also keeping the lightness with good humor. Unique about Ramon is that he understands our business, is able to add his knowledge on innovation/business development and is flexible in terms of adjusting the programme to the needs of the group. He also uses great videos and pictures… we had great fun during the ‘PowerPoint Karaoke’ after dinner a true ideaDJ !

Jan Willem van Drimmelen, CMO – Intertrust Group​

Ramon is one of the most enthusiastic and energetic people I know. He is very inspiring and creative. He is able to let individuals, small or large groups discover parts of their brains they didn’t know existed. For new business, creative strategy settings or stimulating R&D groups, Ramon is the one to call.

Martin De Ruiter, Manager Supply Chain Operations – FloraHolland

Ramon is fresh, open minded and always out of the box. He is able to motivate everyone – and I mean really everyone: a group of serious looking, concentrated German engineers or a team of super sophisticated, satturated advertisers. He is able to spark an idea in every group and help people to nurture their own ideas. Your result: innovation where you never would expect it.

Petra Sammer, Partner & Chief Creative Officer – Ketchum Pleon​​

Ramon did a fantastic job at our meeting and everybody was very happy with his stellar management of the event. His moderation was outstanding. He added a lot of energy to the whole event, provided positive spins and managed the panellists in an impeccable manner. Also his additions to the agenda such as engaging with the audience, his personal in-between slides or the music in the breaks definitely added to the great success of our meeting. Last but not least, we appreciated his availability prior to the conference when he took the time to have several longer preparatory phone calls with us. So overall Ramon was a great plus to our meeting and we are looking forward to working with Ramon again on future events.
