Why I Started
VanArkel-IT
There's a moment every entrepreneur knows — the moment you decide to stop waiting for someone else to give you a chance, and start building it yourself.
I'm Riaan De Jongh van Arkel, Founder and Director of VanArkel-IT. My passion sits at the intersection of two things: technology and people.
"Starting your own business is one of the most vulnerable things you can do — and one of the most powerful."
My family is my motivation. My clients are my responsibility. Because at the end of the day, IT is personal.
