Gerben Bekema (MBA)

Projectmanager | Directie Facilitair Bedrijf, Cluster Inkoop

Gerben (1985) has a strong focus on innovative & value based procurement, and is very passionate about improving healthcare from a procurement perspective (outcomes & costs). He is currently working as interim procurement officer in LUMC. In an earlier stage, Gerben acted as the procurement lead for the Nightingale project, where 5 European academic hospitals (Stockholm, London, Leuven, Aachen, UMC Utrecht) challenged industry to develop (in competition) the perfect patient monitoring system of the future. Also, while working on challenging procurement projects, he graduated for his Master of Business Administration (MBA) with specialization in Health Care. This should support the ambition to improve healthcare from a more broad perspective.
