#168 – Hospitality Meets Inge Meijs – From Passion to Business

We are back in the world of tech this week but have added in more than a pinch of creative and entrepreneurial into the story too. I got some time with the awesome Inge Meijs, Co-Founder and Managing Director of the quite magnificent platform Gastronomixs, the inspiring recipe database for professional chefs.

Inge has a great story and there are more than enough lessons and stories from her life as an entrepreneur to whet the appetite here, as well as some great insight into Gastronomixs,

We get through:-

  • The Netherlands
  • Growing up on a farm
  • Choosing schools
  • Starting a business straight out of University
  • Creativity
  • Recipes
  • The origins of Gastronomix
  • Moving to subscription
  • How it works
  • Entrepreneurial lessons
  • The importance of visual
  • Bullying drivers (Sort of)

And so much more. Inge’s story is brilliant and it’s yet another insight into the incredibly varied roles and business there are in this wonderful industry.

Enjoy!
