Pascal van Beek is an energetic, creative mind who combines entrepreneurship with strategic insight and knowledge of the Supply Chain and the interim market for this domain. With these qualities, he strengthens UC Group professionals and its customers.
As an executive, he has often tried to bend the rules in favor of the customer and employer; as an entrepreneur, it inspired innovative business models. At a young age, he was responsible for a transformation in Ericsson's European Supply Chain, set up a 55,000 m2 EDC for Epson Europe in Tilburg as a completion of a centralization strategy and, as director, led the integration of Exel and DHL's commercial management team after their merger.
After these experiences, he opted for entrepreneurship: a period in which he built UC Group, a consultancy, realization and interim agency in the field of Supply Chain and Production. A unique ecosystem of closely linked companies. In 10 years, he and his partner managed to achieve 20-fold growth for this network. In addition, he developed a BPO business model for freight forwarder Meerendonk, an experience that he later turned into the start-up of chain director BEND. From UC Group, he initiates new product - market solutions and guides affiliated entrepreneurs in developing their solutions.
With this experience, Pascal has been focusing on supporting the Door tot Hoger Foundation for a number of years. In doing so, he is committed to helping young people with creative talents find their way to higher art education and to make this financially possible. In an economy with ever-increasing automation and artificial intelligence, creativity is one of the few competencies that distinguish us as people, including entrepreneurs.
A background that allows him to call himself an investor in the Supply Chain industry: a driven business developer and strategist who helps companies grow, improve margins and/or retain customers, always with the view that you need to include the interests of all stakeholders for sustainable success.
