Welcome to another episode of the Great Business Minds podcast, the definitive show for the business of digital infrastructure.
Our guest in this episode is a successful entrepreneur who has spent the last decade building a business that is today valued at more than US$5 billion.
Felix Van de Maele has led data intelligence firm Collibra through record growth and is responsible for its global business strategy.
But prior to co-founding Collibra, he served as a researcher at the Semantics Technology and Applications Research Laboratory (STARLab) at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, where he focused on ontology-focused crawlers for the semantic web and semantic data integration.
He holds a Master’s in Computer Science and Software Engineering from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and a Master's in General Management from the Vlerick Business School.
Outside his HQ, he is a big fan of kitesurfing and in 2019, Felix was named the EY Technology Entrepreneur of the Year in New York.
