Summary
Thomas Boer is a Netherlands-based entrepreneur and maker with nine years of experience turning data and software ideas into viable products, currently co-founding CodeHive and Haive. Trained in econometrics and mechanical engineering, he blends rigorous quantitative thinking with hands-on development, having moved from web and app development into data science and CTO roles at mOOvement.
