Gerardus Geertruud (Ruud) de Vaal was trained in Power Electronics in the Netherlands and has, in his more than 25 years of experience in the industry, pioneered several novel electronic devices and has contributed greatly to the production of efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly products.
In 1998, he filed his first patent, which is still being used in the Bikkel dimmer. This is a testament to his ability to think futuristically about the needs and demands of society.
His award-winning, innovative approach to research and development has resulted in the multi-platform, worldwide recognition of his work.
Ruud currently resides in Cape Town South Africa.
