What this episode covers

Deze keer was Erik Bergman te gast. Erik is dierenarts, erkend specialist sportgeneeskunde en revalidatie paard, innovator, ondernemer én oprichter van het Sporthorse Medical Diagnostic Centre (SMDC). Het centrum, gevestigd in Heesch, is hét internationale centrum voor topsportpaarden, waarbij dagelijks paarden uit alle windhoeken wereldwijd worden bediend met een team van specialisten. Erik heeft in zijn loopbaan een indrukwekkend pad afgelegd. Van zijn start als specialist voortplanting en verloskunde, tot pionier in nucleaire geneeskunde voor paarden in Nederland. In 2015 richtte hij SMDC op, een multidisciplinair centrum waar kwaliteit, teamwork en diepgaande diagnostiek samenkomen. Inmiddels is hij ook CEO van Altano Benelux (Altano is een internationaal dierenartsennetwerk gespecialiseerd in hoogwaardige zorg en innovatie voor paarden), Vice President van ISELP (International Society Equine Locomotor Pathology) én als ‘teamleider imaging’ betrokken bij meerdere Olympische Spelen, waar hij met precisie en toewijding met zijn team bijdroeg aan de gezondheid en prestaties van ’s werelds beste topsportpaarden. Presentator Hessel Jan Smink sprak met Erik over hoe je een nichebedrijf uitbouwt tot een centre of excellence, over leiderschap in een specialistisch topteam, over de rol van technologie, AI en innovatie in de moderne diergeneeskunde en over wat het betekent om elke dag te bouwen aan kwaliteit, letterlijk én figuurlijk.
