Angela Barendregt
Projectsucces Regisseur at Blue Bricks
I would definitely recommend Digital Strategy to others. It is built on tons of research and experience – and its applicability is unique. I've been a consultant in IT for 12 years now – the programme has shown me many opportunities to work on digital strategy with my clients as well as with my own employer. I also learned from, and was inspired by, the other participants.
Martina Balazsova
Managing Partner at Nova Consultancies
“I joined the Digital Strategy programme because it’s important to stay up-to-date on hot topics. I’ve applied everything I learned – but the most useful element was the real business cases we discussed in class. I found my learning experience to be practical, professional and quite profound.”

Senior Product Owner Marketplace - Digital Commerce
Brussels Airport Company
I worked as a lawyer for seven years before starting my Executive MBA adventure at Vlerick in 2017. During this adventure, it became clear that my true passion lies in digital and data analytics. The main takeaway came from acknowledging that incorporating the right technologies and related monetisation strategy, at the right time, with the right vision, can put you in a competitive advantage. The hands-on and practical frameworks helped with this and gave me the chance and knowledge to close in on all relevant digital opportunities within the company.
