In 2005, Tim Belon and Eva Buydens joined forces at DB Schenker in Belgium to lead a large-scale change process involving 650 employees over 3 years. After pursuing separate paths for more than 15 years, the same passion brought them together again to establish Progredi, a new chapter in their joint mission to drive positive change and empower businesses and individuals to embrace their most important challenges and reach their full potential. With the same expertise and passion, they redefine success, igniting progress and driving growth for their clients. Progredi marks a new chapter in their journey of positive change and transformation.
Tim Belon is a passionate and social entrepreneur, and co-founder of both C9 and Progredi, both operating mainly in the Benelux, D-A-CH and Visegrad regions. With an experience of more than 18 years, C9 has offices in both Belgium and Prague.
Tim shows the true character of a successful entrepreneur and understands that passion and delivering excellence are the drivers of success. With his background in the retail industry (fashion) and work experience at VF Corporation (Lee, Wrangler, Maverick,…), he has embraced a fundamental principle that he consistently applies in all his initiatives. Namely, that you only put something on the market if you would want to buy it yourself as a user.
Tim has gained international experience and has been building a network in the development, management and implementation of projects in Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, D-A-CH, Sweden, Malta, UK, Ireland, Tunisia, Morocco, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, Croatia, Western Balkans, US, Mauritius and China.
Since 2004, he has also been involved in various Unizo projects and acts as a permanent lecturer at the Masterclass KMO Management. There, he mainly focuses on all aspects of strategy building in SMEs.
In his spare time, Tim is particularly committed to the Speechless Reconciliation project, of which he is a co-founder himself. Tim acts as a mentor and helps these young people face their greatest challenges and reach their full potential. Within this project, Tim mainly uses methodologies, techniques,… developed within transition projects of Progredi.
