Thomas is the founder and CEO of Toku. In 2006, he graduated from the Royal Military Academy of Belgium as an Infantry Officer. He spent several years in the field and participated in overseas missions for the United Nations and NATO. That experience shaped his bold and decisive leadership style and served him well whilst moving into the private sector. During this period, Thomas explored management consulting and created an online marketplace for students called NimbusFish in his spare time. His various consulting missions became focused on International Project and Change Management for Corporate IT Initiatives. This refinement led to his next business venture in 2012 when he founded Mundito, a boutique consulting firm. Within three years, Thomas decided that fast-growing Asia was the place-to-be in terms of business opportunities. He migrated to Singapore with the intent to pioneer digital business models for technology start-ups in the financial sector. Besides his in-house consultancy work, Thomas also worked on due diligence assignments for a Swiss family office. By mid-2016, Thomas was recruited by the Board of Directors of GlobalRoam to lead and re-structure the then 15-year-old Singaporean telecom operator. That chapter resulted in the eventual founding of Toku in 2018. Outside of work, Thomas enjoys swimming and long runs to unwind. He is also an avid reader, loves history, and is passionate about how technology and innovation are essential to the future of our society.
