Collaboration with Fontys University of Applied Sciences

We prioritize making a societal contribution, which is why we have maintained a long-standing partnership with Fontys. This collaboration also has an interesting historical context, as both founders (Edgar de Beule and Hesam Fahimi) are alumni of Fontys in Eindhoven and established Markteffect in conjunction with one of their former lecturers (Maarten van Nieuwland).

Together with Fontys, we organize various activities and events to bring education and business closer together. Some examples:

  • Fontys Best Business;
  • Geert Timmers Award;
  • Guest lectures given by our staff;
  • Practical assignments for students;
  • Various interns and graduation interns from Fontys University of Applied Sciences;
  • Alumni events;
  • Providing research and datasets that students can work with.

Since 2019, we have been a Partner in Education of Fontys University of Applied Sciences. This is something we are very proud of and cherish greatly.

We also attach great importance to stimulating (young) entrepreneurship. We also provide financial and personnel support to initiatives that contribute to the development of entrepreneurship. One example of this is Fontys Best Business, where young students can pitch their business plans to entrepreneurs.
