Bert Hagendoorn

At Adobe Systems Benelux I work as Marketingproject Manager on several projects for Creative Pro and Web Development, focussing at the creative and interactive industry, strengthening the network and connections within that field for Adobe. Events, sponsoring and communities are keywords.

Next to this I am manager of the Dutch Adobe User Group. We have 2500 creative professionals being member of this association: sharing knowlegde, inspiration and networking are the 3 goals of the organisation. See www.adobeusergroup.nl.

I have been participating in jury's for many years now:
- SpinAwards in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009
- The FWA in 2008, 2009
- Nederlandse Design Prijzen in 2005, 2006
- Dutch Bloggies 2007
- IBC Design Awards

Earlier I worked at Satama (OER and FlashFabriek), now Lost Boys. Before that I was Editor-in-Chief of Dzone magazine, the major Dutch print publication on graphic design and web. I started working as creative (print, web, mulitmedia), from designer to art director at different agencies, from Holland to Hong Kong and Tokyo.
