Background

About Filip van Vlem

With over three decades of experience in PR and communications, I'm an enthusiastic and hands-on professional in the exciting world of events and entertainment. After completing my bachelor's degree in Communication in 1998, I've seen the industry evolve and grow. Since 2005, I've been working as an independent consultant, helping businesses navigate the changing landscape of PR and communications. For over ten years, I've also been part of AED group, at the heart of the entertainment sector: the rental and sale of professional audiovisual equipment to industry professionals. I've had the privilege of helping market AED's in-house AV brands — Luxibel, AED Audio, NEXT Truss, and StageLIFT — from the ground up. I've also played a key supporting role at AED Studios, now one of the largest and by far the most eco-friendly TV, film, and event complexes in the world. My work at AED has given me a broad perspective on business operations and leadership, keeping me motivated in a dynamic and challenging international environment. My passion extends beyond the events industry — it's about building connections. I love travelling, exploring different cultures, and meeting new people. While I'm passionate about the latest technologies and innovations, I believe that human interaction and psychology are at the core of success. This balance is essential in both my professional and personal life. My approach is straightforward and full of passion, always focused on creating meaningful connections and delivering results.
