From 2013 to 2017\, she led Museum Villa Mondriaan in Winterswijk\, in the eastern Netherlands. She was appointed at the age of 24\, making her the youngest museum director in the Netherla nds at the time.  Between 2017 and 2020\, Kremers worked for the Chow Tai Fook Art Foundation in Hong Kong\, where she developed innovative art and design projects. She subsequently returned to the Netherlands to take up her position at Fenix. Berfu Ege Soge\, board member of the Positive Impa ct Circle\, will join us to talk about her upcoming book Impact by Design: Creating Certainty and Impact in a World of Complexity. The word 'impact' gets used so often\, and so differently by different people\, that it has  started to lose its weight. Ege Sobe's book sets out to fix that\, offer ing a shared language and a practical toolkit through the Impact Compass\, a framework built around four dimensions at once: environment\, economy\, society\, and the individual\, so leaders\, founders and investors can tu rn the idea of impact into something they can actually build. About the Ci rcles Circles are communities within the Erasmus Alumni Club that bring al umni together around shared interests. The Positive Impact Circle connects alumni who want to inspire and learn from one another and contribute to p ositive societal change. The Art &\; Culture Circle brings alumni toget her through a shared interest in art\, ideas and culture.
