Rik has been in education for over 25. In 2005 he became triggered by the challenge to educate professionals for the game industry. This resulted in the creation of the Digital Arts & Entertainment curriculum in 2006. Now, 12 years later, the curriculum has been elected best Game Design & Development degree worldwide by The Rookies, for two consecutive years. Rik is constantly looking for new strategic innovations within education that are able to support the constantly accelerating technological evolutions in society. Being active in education means that day in day out, you are (re)creating the future. The last couple of years have been focused around creating a local gametech based eco system that stimulates entrepreneurship and innovation, this way aiming for a braingain towards the Flemish region.
