About DAFTConnect

A community platform built by DAFT entrepreneurs, for DAFT entrepreneurs.

Our Story

DAFTConnect started as a simple idea while Jonathan was preparing to move to Maastricht on the DAFT visa. Navigating the Dutch business landscape as an American entrepreneur can be challenging—finding the right accountant, understanding KVK requirements, connecting with others who've been through the same process. There had to be a better way for us to help each other.

Shortly after launching, Caleb became our first user. What made it special was that Caleb had been thinking about building exactly this kind of platform himself—only to discover that DAFTConnect had just gone live. Instead of starting from scratch, he jumped in to help grow what was already here.

Now we're working together to make DAFTConnect a truly valuable resource for the DAFT community. Caleb has been instrumental in spreading the word and connecting with other DAFTers, while we continue building features that address the real needs of American entrepreneurs in the Netherlands.

This isn't a corporate project—it's a community effort. We're all figuring out Dutch business life together, and DAFTConnect is our way of making that journey a little easier for everyone.
