Natascha Rommens

Natascha Rommens graduated in 2001 as Master of Linguistics and Literature at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (BE). She added a master in international relations and politics to broaden her interest in cultural diversity. After gaining experience in sales, marketing and marketing communications in an international company, she decided to bring her experience back to the field that lies in her interest: creative economy. In 2007 she conducted a large scale survey on the need for a platform that links cross border projects to design expertise. She founded REcentre in 2008, bringing together sustainability, entrepreneurship and design. Currently she’s director of REcentre where she conducts, together with a multidisciplinary team of 6 persons, various projects with the aim to promote sustainability.
