About Lex

Experience on both sides.

I’m Lex de Lange. As a former serviceman (KMA, green beret, Hogere Militaire Vorming), I know Defence from the inside. After that, I spent many years working with this sector through large and smaller IT companies.

Two perspectives

From experience to advice.

A company and a defence organisation may look at the same challenge in different ways. I help bring those perspectives together.

My military background is one side of my experience. I know the language and context of Defence. The other is my long-standing work with the sector from the business side.

That helps me understand both an organisation’s needs and a company’s capabilities and ambitions. I connect problems with solutions, different levels of an organisation, and people who might not otherwise meet.

Through Bridge2Connect, I support companies that want to do business with this sector and could use some guidance. The starting point is your company and the question you want to work through.

“I know my way around, speak the language and have a network within and around this distinctive sector.”
