Vlerick Business School

I don't need many words to describe our long-standing relationship with Hillewaere Insurance | De Clercq-Verstichel: sustainable entrepreneurship, professional expertise and, above all, authentic customer focus. These seeds of authentic culture and underlying values are ingrained not only in the business managers, but also in every employee I had the pleasure of getting to know. Achieving this is perhaps one of the greatest challenges of any business and the dream of every company. Congratulations for this.

Usually, people and companies have a love-hate relationship with their insurer and broker. However, in our cooperation with Hillewaere Insurance | De Clercq-Verstichel, in both easy and difficult cases, I never had this feeling. I sense in our cooperation a form of partnership based on mutual respect and gratitude with a large dose of trust.

Respect for professionalism and entrepreneurship (two words that go hand in hand) and gratitude for unburdening us in a few claims cases we were confronted with over time. It is therefore a small effort to refer friendly entrepreneurs who come to us for advice on their insurance portfolio to Hillewaere Insurance | De Clercq-Verstichel. And to trust blindly that they will be helped very professionally.

An ambitious insurance firm taking challenging steps on digitisation and scaling can only be met with applause by us as a Business School. Our message at Vlerick is "Dare, Care, Share" and above all, we translate this into "Take the leap". And that is what they are doing at Hillewaere.
