Feyenoord Global Football hosts successful Holland House Mexico event

“It was a pleasure to organize an afternoon focused on doing business and investing in Mexico together with the team at Feyenoord Rotterdam. Just as football connects people, Holland House Mexico connects individuals and organizations with a shared passion and ambition.’’

- Carin Verbree, Executive Director of Holland House Mexico (HHM).

The event brought together professionals from a wide range of industries with a shared interest in exploring opportunities in the Mexican market. Following a networking reception, guests were welcomed by Ruud van der Knaap, Feyenoord’s Commercial Director, who invited Dennis te Kloese to the stage. Drawing on his extensive experience in both Dutch and Mexican football, Te Kloese shared his insights on Mexico and presented a Feyenoord shirt to Alfonso Herrera Ascencio, Deputy Head of Mission at the Embassy of Mexico in the Netherlands.

The program also featured contributions from representatives of the Mexican Embassy, the European Commission, and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Mexico, highlighting the opportunities arising from the modernized EU Mexico Global Agreement and Mexico’s growing role in the global economy.

The event concluded with two panel discussions and a networking reception, providing attendees with valuable insights and opportunities to build new connections between Dutch and Mexican business communities.

Through initiatives such as this, Feyenoord Global Football continues to leverage the global reach of football to connect people, organizations and opportunities across borders.
