Koen Peeters
Key Account-Project Manager,
WiCreations
Started back in '98 at Stageco Belgium as cad designer with only high school knowledge of the matters, though looking for new career opportunities and with a broad technical background. Picked up the Autocad skills quite easily. Very soon it turned out I was very skilful at creating special solutions for special occasions... Since 2005 and upto mid 2012, most of Stageco's major custom builds and some completely new stages for the international rental market, started life through my mouse clicks. Mid 2012 I quit Stageco and quite soon I was presented with a few other career opportunities, where I opted for Wicreations. As I still loved the entertainment business, I already knew Hans and some of the new colleagues and had been following the Wicreations projects from the beginning on, this was a logical move for me. Moving from full time R&D draftsman to project manager and later on to key account manager certainly stimulated me to develop new skills! In the past 12 years of working at WI I collaborated with numerous productions to create a multitude of memorable projects. Specialties: Strong will to achieve a solution for every possible problem, especially for the ones occurring "in the field" on the worst possible moment. Working out a solution with minimal cost and maximum efficiency (time wise, transports, safety and ergonomical) always is a major goal. Speaking 4 languages is a bonus in communicating with international clients. Working with people with different backgrounds, but with the same goals, in rapidly changing working environments on international build sites is what I love to do
