Thijs is the managing director of Viking Bookings, a water sports booking software company.

Thijs was running a kitesurf school company in the Netherlands but after a few years, he realized that they met the limits of what is humanly possible when running a watersports company.

He contacted a local software development agency to help him to solve this problem and together they designed a solution that was successfully automatized the processed in the kitesurf school.

But there were thousands of other water sports companies that were managing reservations all the processes manually. And that was an opportunity to offer this custom solution as a packaged software.
