The value of metrics in delivering top performance, Personal Leadership and Innovation.
"Accept bad luck, live your life and connect!"
According to Maarten, happiness is closely tied to setting and achieving goals. In order to set and achieve your goals, it's important you know who you are and where you come from. Maarten wants to inspire others to become the best version of themselves – personal and professional – and to find acceptation when life isn't what you want it to be.

Maarten van der Weijden
Former cancer patient
Maarten was diagnosed with cancer (acute lymphoblastic leukemia) in 2001. He was lucky to recover. According to Maarten, having cancer means having bad luck. You don't have to be a fighter to get better, you have to be lucky.
Olympic Champion
Maarten won Olympic gold in open water swimming (10 km) at the Olympic Games in Beijing (2008).
Volunteer
Maarten founded the Maarten van der Weijden Foundation. In less than a year, the foundation has collected over 11 million euros for cancer research. This was made possible through donations received for Maarten’s non-stop swim of the 195 km, 11stedenzwemtocht. In 2018, Maarten made his first attempt at swimming the 11stedenzwemtocht and raised 5 million euros. In 2019 he successfully completed the 11stedenzwemtocht, raising over 6 million euros.
