Riskonet

What Riskonet does

Riskonet is a Netherlands-based, privately held risk management consultancy founded in 2013 by Ron de Bruijn and Tom de Nooij, operating as a global network of independent partner-led offices. The company delivers integrated risk management advisory organized around four pillars — Legislation and Regulations, Insurability and Risk Financing, Business Continuity Management, and People and Culture (HSE) — targeting enterprise clients in industrial, warehouse, chemical-logistics, and large-organization segments. Its core differentiator is a client-conflict-free positioning that advises exclusively in client interests, never in those of insurers or authorities, supported by deep expertise in hazardous-materials compliance, fire safety, and insurance inspection preparation.

Riskonet monetizes through two professional services streams: bespoke risk management consulting engagements and structured training delivered via Riskonet Academy. The Academy is the only NFPA Authorized Provider and Instructor for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, offering official certification courses on fire alarm, sprinkler, fire pump, and water-based protection systems delivered online and on location. The firm maintains wholly-owned offices in the Netherlands, Poland, Turkey, South Africa, and Australia, and reaches additional geographies through independent strategic partners in Asia, North and South America. GTM is sales-led and partner-led, with no proprietary technology product, no public pricing, and content marketing (whitepapers, webinars, case studies) serving as the primary top-of-funnel channel.

The underlying technology stack is human expertise rather than software: the company does not develop proprietary platforms, APIs, or AI/ML tooling. Growth has been measured and organic — office openings every few years since founding, recent partner additions in 2025, and exclusive regulatory designations — with no disclosed funding rounds and revenue figures that remain private. Ownership rests with the co-founders, and operations run on a partner-autonomy model where local specialists retain commercial independence under shared methodology.
