Erik van Beusekom joins Hedgehog Applications as Partnership Director
At Hedgehog, we believe smart and reliable charging solutions are built through strong partnerships. That is why we are pleased to welcome Erik Christian van Beusekom as our new Partnership Director.
Erik brings more than 15 years of experience in the energy transition. He was closely involved in the rapid growth of Heliox, helping the company scale from a start-up of just five people into an international business with more than 300 employees. During that time, Heliox grew into a leading provider of fast-charging solutions and was ultimately acquired by Siemens eMobility.
That experience, from pioneering in the early start-up phase to scaling into an established market player, is highly valuable to Hedgehog. Erik knows what sustainable growth takes, where the pitfalls are and how the right partnerships can help accelerate innovation.
“At Hedgehog, I recognise the same spirit we had in the early days of our start-up,” says Erik. “The team sees the opportunities in heavy transport and understands the specific demands that come with it. Their experience, combined with the energy of a young development team, makes Hedgehog feel like a speedboat in the electrification of heavy transport.”
With Erik as Partnership Director, we are strengthening the way we work with customers and partners.
His broad network and strategic perspective will help us support the sector with one of its biggest challenges: the electrification of heavy transport.
