About:
Thomas Vles is a true entrepreneur with a passion for fairness and innovation. After years of experience in the fintech world, as CEO of Tellow and Chief Revenue Officer at Ageras, he decided to found GoDutch in 2024. His motivation? A banking world that needs to become more transparent, faster, and fairer for entrepreneurs.
Thomas has a background in Physics and Psychology and previously built successful businesses, including Poopy Cat which achieved over 10 million views on YouTube and was even featured by Oprah Winfrey. That combination of analytical thinking and entrepreneurial spirit makes him a unique voice in the Dutch startup and fintech world.
Today, he leads GoDutch with a single mission: to make business banking fairer for the more than 23,000 entrepreneurs who rely on the platform daily.
"Banks earn billions at the expense of their customers. It really doesn’t have to be that way. At GoDutch, we simply share that return back."
