Khonraad

As Head of Innovation and later Lead Emerging Technologies and AI Architect, I led the innovation initiatives for the Netherlands’ WvGGZ, WZD and WTH law compliance platform. Maintained the core platform’s architecture, drove innovation projects, and held the bar on technical quality across all development. Second lead during Visma’s 2020 acquisition. Khonraad’s value proposition is that all stakeholders sleep well at night — protecting patients’ rights, in compliance with the laws.
