Who we are & what we do

Sweav is a digital platform and community that connects top freelance strategy and M&A professionals with projects and clients.

We have a dual purpose. First, we empower top-tier professionals to (re)gain independence in their lives—professionally, by working where they can have the most impact, and personally, by becoming happier and more productive members of society. Second, we lower the barrier for clients to hire these talented professionals through a more flexible and cost-effective model.

Sweav was founded in 2021 by former strategy consultants Thijmen Kaster and Joeri Schouten. It has since grown into a community of more than 300 high-end independent strategy and M&A professionals, all trained at leading firms. We've completed over 300 projects for private equity, mid-market, and corporate clients.

Our team currently consists of fourteen people. The culture is collaborative, energetic, and ambitious. Our goal for 2025 is to reach €15 million in revenue.
