Anko is a Consultant at Ignite Group with extensive experience in policy advice related to the alignment of education and the labor market, concept and project development, innovation advice, subsidy advice, and (interim) project management, particularly within educational institutions (focusing on continuous learning pathways, vmbo, mbo, and hbo), municipalities, and business partnerships.

Anko has significant experience in developing and implementing Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) using subsidies.

Anko’s strength lies in identifying a development and translating it into a concrete (subsidy) opportunity.

Clients often describe Anko with terms such as empathy, decisiveness, service orientation, and commitment. Anko excels at identifying a particular (societal) development and translating it into a concrete opportunity and/or concept. This opportunity is then developed into a concrete project. Central to Anko’s approach is that the project enhances the primary process of the client. Anko has worked on a diverse range of assignments for a wide array of clients. The projects Anko works on or has worked on are highly varied, with a common thread being Public-Private Partnerships and advising on technology, (stimulating) entrepreneurship, and challenging target groups.
