Andre, with a Master in Chemistry specializing in Materials, transitioned from academia to entrepreneurship by co-founding a lead generation and qualification business in the Belgian real estate sector. Over four years, he focused on business development and support, helping bootstrap the company to generate €500K in revenue, which was reinvested to launch Proppy without external funding.

A key achievement was securing a partnership with the Century 21 group in Belgium, significantly expanding the company's reach. Andre also built a network of over 300 real estate agents, crucial for scaling the business. In his free time, Andre enjoys basketball, sailing, and hiking.
