Anton van Vlaanderen

Directeur/Membre du Conseil chez RatherChat Pty Ltd.

Profil

Anton van Vlaanderen joined 4Di in 2009 when the company officially started its fund management activities, and became a Partner in 2011 at the launch of 4Di Capital Fund I.
Anton brings more than 20 years’ experience as an entrepreneur, angel investor and venture investor to the firm and currently serves as 4Di’s Managing Partner, responsible for the general management of all its operations, as well as overseeing many of the firm’s portfolio investments.
Shortly after leaving university in 2000, Anton spent a year working with Old Mutual Properties – South Africa’s largest insurer – as part of an innovation team tasked with turning around poorly performing property assets in the company’s portfolio.
Within that year, Anton acquired and tunred around an ailing flexible office company in Johannesburg, which he then replicated to start a similar initiative in Cape Town.
Realizing quite quickly that corporate life was not his future, Anton launched a fresh fruit export marketing business with his father, Erik van Vlaanderen, that they owned and managed profitably for seven years.
It was during this time that Anton became actively involved in some of 4Di’s earliest angel investment activities, which the firm pursued in its previous capacity as a private family office investment vehicle.
Anton holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of South Africa and a Postgraduate Diploma in Management from the University of Cape Town.
He lives in Cape Town with his wife and two children.
