The awards we won were: Rabobank and MKB Nederland's Next Entrepreneur award, the Heineken International Dragon's Den award for sustainable products, and the publishing house Industrielinqs’ Enlightenmentz of the Year award in the Product category. We were a runner-up for the Accenture Innovation Award. During the Week of the Entrepreneur in 2016 we are offered the opportunity to meet Prime Minister Mark Rutte! Once a year, a select group of people who have made a positive contribution to society are invited for a lunch with King Willem Alexander and Queen Máxima. In 2016 Peter had lunch next to our Queen, what an honor!
