People
Net Collective was formed by two partners, but early on Filip de Waard took over his co-founders stake in the company. In the early consultancy days the company consisted of three core people, extended by a team of interns and several external, freelance contractors. With the shift in focus from consulting to developing its own projects, however, Net Collective has become the business side of Filip de Waard's internet projects. As these efforts are still in the incubation stage, we are currently not hiring.
