Marc Rodan concept builder creative director branding marketing about bikery pancakes poffertjes gothenburg sweden

Hi, I’m Marc Rodan 👋

After starting my first business (a pancake bike in Sweden), I knew what I loved to do: build innovative concepts that stand out. Today, companies of all sizes call me when they need help with creating an engaging e-learning experience, an appealing website, a memorable event or presentation, or any other challenge that requires a creative mind.

🎉 Fun facts: I’m Dutch and two meters tall. I love time-travel movies, penguins, superheroes and UFOs. I like going to the gym several times per week, but only because audio books exist. Oh and I wear blue glasses, hence the website logo.

Get in touch

1990

I was born as the 14,000th inhabitant of a tiny, Dutch, countryside village called Steenbergen. The mayor even came to visit. I know, crazy right?

2002

For 6 years, I biked nearly 30 kilometres every day to get to my high school and back.

2012

I went on a university exchange to Hong Kong and Shanghai.

2015

After graduation, I started my first business called The Bikery: a Dutch pancake bakery in Gothenburg, Sweden… on a bike!

2017

I booked a one-way ticket to Bali and started my e-learning company Ninjafy (now Mental Lemonade) while travelling southeast Asia as a digital nomad.

2019

I came back home to the Netherlands and started KREW to connect entrepreneurs on a more personal level.

I created marcrodan.com to showcase all of my work in one place.
