Margriet Vollenberg is a professional in the global field of design and has over twenty years’ experience in the design industry. She is a graduate designer who studied at the Design Academy in Eindhoven under Lidewij Edelkoort, the head professor. After graduating she moved to Milan and worked as a jewellery designer in a company which worked for big Italian fashion brands. Here Margriet realised that she excelled most at organising and matchmaking, always finding ways to connect people and businesses with the creative power of design. This is how she came to help Moooi with their stands and presentation and became a specialist in the organisation of all aspects of design.

Her current company, Organisation in Design, was founded by Margriet in 2005. Together with her team in the Netherlands and Italy Margriet keeps working tirelessly to guarantee a platform for the best of international contemporary design. It comprises Ventura Projects as well as a specialised PR department and provides clients with services such as project and event management, strategies, consultancy, PR & communications and art direction.

Margriet believes that design makes this world a better place and that designers are an important part of positive change. Her international network is vast and diverse and she loves to put it into action for high end matchmaking that generates new collaborations, products and ideas. Unburdening her clients means that they can focus on what they do – and that means creating a whole new tomorrow for us all.

Besides this Margriet is no stranger to the international talks' circuit. She has inspired people all over the world with her views on international contemporary design.
