Hendrik van der Ham is a Dutch entrepreneur and founder of BRIDGES2000 and SEVENTH, driven by a passion for innovation, business growth, and creating a more sustainable world.

​

His journey began in the maritime world. Through BRIDGES2000, he has spent decades developing practical infrastructure solutions that connect people, places and industries.

But for Hendrik, building bridges has always meant more than engineering. It is about creating connections, between sectors, between ideas and reality, and between the world we have today and the world we want to create tomorrow.

 

With SEVENTH, he is taking that thinking further, exploring what he calls The Other Way of Living.

At the heart of his vision is a fundamental question: how can we create an economy in which quality of life, circularity and long-term value are integral to the way we do business?
