Last Friday, Gé Bentvelsen retired as the director of his company, ABZ Seeds. Gé previously worked at Syngenta, formerly known as Zaadunie. At that time this company focused on the development of seed-propagated varieties. As they thought this business area had no future due to budget cuts, they discontinued activities in this area. This is when Gé seized the opportunity.
Claudia den Braver of Plantum offers a badge to Gé in recognition for his services to the strawberry crop group.
