Hi there, and welcome on my website. I’m Pepijn, an entrepreneur living in Amsterdam. What moves me is (web)technology, machine learning, AI, space and sustainable energy. I like to dream about what these fields will bring us in the future.. which is possibly limitless and that’s pretty awesome. Below some projects I’m currently working on.

Previous Projects
Companies looking for an intern can add their internship description to the website in the form of an ‘issue’. Students who are interested can upload their pitch on how they would tackle the company’s issue during their internship. The idea was that this would only attract the most motivated students for that specific internship.
This was a project where people could sell and buy clothes locally based on their location. Users can follow sellers and get alerts when they add new items. The items of followed seller would appear in the user’s feed. Sellers can promote themselves and their items.
With ‘FriendFeud’ you could play the famous game “Guess who?” with your common Facebook friends. You both download the app, connect to Facebook and 16 random common friends would be loaded and the game would begin. Asking question about people you both know gives the game an extra dimension.
Fun Projects
Tool to shorten urls and convert urls to QR codes. The idea behind the site was to easily be able to open a url on your mobile device by scanning the QR code generated from the page’s url you were using on your non-mobile computer.
Quiz drinking game where you have to answer a 4 choice multiple choice question in turns with your friends. The person who gives the wrong answer has to drink. Users can also add questions which are put online after approval.
