Ramon studied Commercial Economics at the University of Applied Sciences in Vlissingen but spent much of his time in Rotterdam and later even in Hong Kong. There, he interned at a certification lab for LED lighting, the place where the first seed for Ledgnd was planted.
\u201cHong Kong was a real eye-opener for me,\u201d he recalls. \u201cThe freedom, the mentality, the speed of innovation. I felt: this is the kind of world where I can make an impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

During his minor in psychology, Ramon began doubting whether to continue studying or take the leap right away. \u201cI could either go for a master\u2019s in innovation management or just do<\/em> it. I thought: let\u2019s give it a try. If I fail, I\u2019ll learn from it. And if it works, it\u2019ll be something truly my own.\u201d<\/p>\n

That entrepreneurial mindset was there from an early age. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, Ramon always knew he wanted to start something himself. \u201cI figured when you\u2019re young, you\u2019ve got little to lose and a lot to learn. So why not take the risk? That time in my life was all about guts and growth.\u201d<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”The first steps and the start of Ledgnd” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]\n

The idea for Ledgnd didn\u2019t come from a business plan, it grew from curiosity and a strong desire to create real value. During his internship in Hong Kong, Ramon worked extensively with lighting and plant science. He realized it wasn\u2019t just about the lamp or its specs, but how light, climate, and plant interact.
\u201cYou can give two growers the same lamp and still get completely different results. It\u2019s all about insight and application,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n

That realization became the foundation: there was a need for an independent advisor who could help growers make decisions tailored to their crops, greenhouses, and business goals.<\/p>\n

Back in the Netherlands, Ramon met Joris Elstgeest while writing his graduation thesis on LED in greenhouses. The connection was instant. \u201cWe both saw the same thing: growers didn\u2019t just need a lamp, they needed clarity, direction, and someone who truly thought along with them.\u201d
And so Ledgnd was born: less technical, more human.<\/p>\n

As Ledgnd grew, one pattern became clear: switching to new lighting strategies or energy models changes the entire growing process. Growers needed more real-time insight into what was happening in their plants, not after the fact, but during cultivation.
\u201cThe greenhouse world was changing fast,\u201d says Ramon. \u201cClimate, energy costs, new lighting methods, everything was connected. Growers were making big decisions based on gut feeling and data scattered across different systems. We thought: that can be better.\u201d<\/p>\n

That thought became MyLedgnd: a platform that brings together light, climate, crop, and sensor data in one clear dashboard. Not to complicate, but to simplify.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”From daring to doing” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]\n

In the early days, Ramon often had to convince experienced growers to try something new: LED lighting as a smart growing tool. \u201cThat was pretty nerve-wracking. You\u2019re young, talking to people with decades of experience and you\u2019re trying to teach them something new. But if you truly listen and think along with their challenges, they take you seriously. That\u2019s when trust grows.\u201d<\/p>\n

That curious, solution-driven mindset still fuels him today. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen this as just \u2018sales\u2019. I want to understand what\u2019s happening inside a greenhouse and what a grower really needs. That\u2019s what makes this work so fulfilling, you\u2019re genuinely helping someone move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”The role of CCO: Closer to the grower than to the title” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]\n

As CCO, Ramon focuses on sales, strategy, and the ongoing development of MyLedgnd, though he doesn\u2019t really see himself as a manager.
\u201cI don\u2019t feel more important than anyone else. We\u2019re in this together. Everyone should be able to speak up. I\u2019d rather break down barriers than build them. That\u2019s the only way to keep growing.\u201d<\/p>\n

He spends much of his time with growers. \u201cThat\u2019s what I love most. Every grower has their own story, often family businesses filled with pride, hard work, and innovation. I learn something new from them every day. Being able to help them with our knowledge and that\u2019s what gives me energy.\u201d<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Never give up, even after ten times \u2018no\u2019” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Ramon is niet iemand die snel opgeeft. \u201cEr komt altijd een elfde keer,\u201d zegt hij met een lach. \u201cAls een teler tien keer nee zegt, dan denk ik: ok\u00e9, wat heb ik gemist? Hoe kan ik het beter uitleggen? Dat doorzetten zit gewoon in me. Je moet willen cre\u00ebren en blijven geloven in wat je doet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dat optimisme is wat hem kenmerkt zowel in werk als daarbuiten. \u201cIk ben eigenlijk altijd vrolijk. Natuurlijk zijn er uitdagingen, maar ik probeer alles positief te bekijken.

What makes him proudest? Without hesitation: the team. \u201cWe\u2019ve built a group of people, each with their own strengths. Everyone feels at home here and can truly be themselves. That\u2019s something worth protecting, because you grow faster when you really use each other\u2019s perspectives.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Ramon, that shared drive is the secret behind Ledgnd. \u201cWe all want to build something we can be proud of and you can feel that every single day.\u201d
\u201cYou need people with the same spark. People who pull together, lift each other up. That\u2019s how we\u2019ve grown: step by step, with guts, teamwork, and a lot of learning along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Looking ahead: Building the future” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]\n

In the coming years, Ramon wants to keep building a future where data, technology, and plant science come even closer together.
\u201cMy dream is that one day, we\u2019ll be able to predict how a crop will develop and not just based on light, but on every factor that affects plant growth. That way, we can help growers work more efficiently and sustainably.\u201d<\/p>\n

But always with practice as the foundation. \u201cTechnology is great, but it has to stay understandable.
