Diederik Syoen is Co-Founder at Ringtime, a Ghent-based AI voice agent platform automating recruitment and communication for blue-collar industries across Europe. He brings a sharp product-marketing lens to building infrastructure that connects candidates and employers faster than traditional tools allow.

Diederik holds a Masters in General Management from Vlerick Leuven-Gent Management School and built over a decade of B2B SaaS expertise at high-growth Belgian startups. He served as Head of the Go-To-Market team at Teamleader CRM before becoming Head of Marketing at Cheqroom, where he helped scale the company through a $15M growth round.

Diederik's expertise spans inbound marketing, storytelling, product positioning, and pricing and packaging, combining creative thinking with an analytical mindset. His firsthand frustration trying to reach a utility company by phone was one of the sparks that led to Ringtime's founding concept.

Prior to Ringtime, Diederik held senior marketing and growth roles at Peripass, Cheqroom, and Teamleader CRM, all prominent Belgian B2B SaaS companies. This track record across multiple scaling startups gave him deep insight into go-to-market strategy in competitive European markets.

Ringtime secured a 1.8M euro seed round led by Volta Ventures just months after its September 2025 launch, and is already generating 400K in annual recurring revenue. The platform serves major staffing clients including Trixxo Jobs, Synergie Jobs, and House of HR, with expansion into the Netherlands, UK, and Germany underway.
