Evelien Anne ChristiaanseFollowing the successful opening of Zoku’s first location in Amsterdam, Zoku now plans to open 50 global properties within 10 years. Co-founders Hans Meyer and Marc Jongerius are building the global rollout team and are pleased to announce the appointment of Evelien Anne Christiaanse to the role of Growth Hacker. Zoku’s rollout is driven by crowdsourcing. Members of the community are able to suggest leads to new sites, contracts, developer meetings and more in exchange for perks and financial rewards. Hans and Marc are bringing Evelien Anne Christiaanse on board as Zoku’s first Growth Hacker to accelerate the process of finding sites around the world for new properties. Evelien’s experience in using data to boost startup growth is an untraditional role for a hotel and an innovative approach to expanding a hospitality brand.
