Joeri Staessen

With more than 30 years of professional experience, I bring a strong combination of strategic insight, commercial acumen, and ecosystem thinking to advisor and board roles. My background spans the insurance and health funds sector as well as senior commercial roles in B2B environments, giving me a deep understanding of how people strategy, innovation, busdev & scaling-up, and business performance intersect.
As an advisor or board member, my added value lies in three areas: a strong BeNE-oriented network, proven commercial experience, and a clear scale‑up mindset. I am comfortable operating at the intersection of strategy, execution, and stakeholder alignment, supporting organizations as they grow, professionalize, or reposition themselves.
Companies that benefit most from my expertise are growth-stage and scaling organizations—particularly in health, care, wellbeing, HR, and service-oriented sectors—that need both strategic guidance and hands-on board-level sparring to translate ambition into sustainable impact. Let’s rock.
