About Ivo van Dam
Strategic technical leader with a passion for sustainable progress
Met meer dan 15 jaar ervaring op het gebied van techniek, energie en mobiliteit, help ik organisaties om complexe projecten en strategische uitdagingen om te zetten in duurzame resultaten. Ik werk het meest optimaal waar technologie, bedrijfsstrategie en uitvoering bij elkaar komen, met een scherp oog voor haalbaarheid, impact en samenwerking.
My career started in engineering, but quickly grew into leadership and strategic roles. As CTO within PowerField and later as CEO of PowerGo, a fast-growing Charge Point Operator (CPO) operating in multiple European countries, I built teams, implemented projects and provided direction for innovation and growth.
I am driven by accelerating the energy transition, combining smart technical choices with clear leadership. Whether it is a grid congestion issue, an international rollout of charging infrastructure, or the temporary filling of a management role. I bring structure, overview and progress.
