Exciting news! We're thrilled to welcome Bart Manuel as new Venture Partner at 4impact!
Bart and his brother Paul Manuel founded TamTam in 1996, pioneering the early stages of the internet boom. Under their leadership, TamTam became one of the top three digital agencies in The Netherlands by 2012. But their ambitions went much farther and with support of Waterland (and later Carlyle) they expanded the business into Dept: now boasting over €500m in revenue, with more than 4,000 digital experts across 30 offices in 20 countries.
With his stellar track record in digital transformation and hands-on scaling experience as a founder, we believe Bart will be of incredible value to our portfolio companies.
Bart has also been instrumental in supporting Follow This, a grassroots non-profit championed by Mark van Baal that encourages shareholders to advocate for climate action at Big Oil AGMs. Their involvement has significantly influenced the industry's shift towards sustainable energy.
Excited for the expertise and vision Bart brings, driving further digital innovation and sustainable growth. Welcome aboard, Bart!
