Since 1987, he has been active in the development of projects and policies exploring the potential of ICT and Internet technologies for social applications. In the late 1980s, he was involved in the implementation of integrated online office environments, which foster new ways of working together.

He piloted a telework project for the Dutch public service and facilitated debates at the European level as a Scientific Officer for the European Commission.
Since then, he has focused on improving the dependability and security of networks and information systems, privacy and data protection, and the future of the Internet and Internet governance, including the Internet of Things.

He is currently acting as the Chairman of the IGF Dynamic Coalition on Internet of Things and the Chairman of the Supervisory Board of NLnet Foundation.

Since 2006, he has participated in the development of EU policy on RFID and the Internet of Things. He is a partner in the EU-sponsored project Smart Action, which is responsible for the policy aspects of IoT developments. With the DC-IoT, he presented a statement on IoT Good Practice Policies for the global meeting of the 10th IGF in Joao Pessoa, Brazil, November 2015. [4]
