Elegant, Frisian, global —
timeless and purposeful.
Hilda van der Meulen grew up in Friesland as an equestrian entrepreneur. After her unexpected victory as Miss Holland she represented the Netherlands at Miss World in Sun City, South Africa (1993). Her career took her to London, Paris, Monaco and Los Angeles — as model, actress and TV presenter.
Through her Hollywood connections she developed skills in project creation, financing and executive producing. Since 2013 she focuses exclusively on purpose-driven projects with significant cultural and sustainable impact.
From the Frisian Museum Village Allingawier to Green Earth Group NV and international film productions — Hilda bridges worlds.
Today
Hilda works at the intersection of entrepreneurship, sustainability, culture and creative production. She contributes strategic direction, quality oversight and international perspective to organisations and projects with lasting cultural or environmental value.
Philanthropist & Visionary
At the heart of her work is the belief that no condition has to remain as it is. Land can be restored, communities can prosper and difficult circumstances can be turned around when the right actions are taken with purpose, responsibility and persistence.
She approaches both philanthropy and business from this perspective: looking at what can be improved, what it takes to make that improvement real, and how it can create lasting value for everyone involved.
Her focus is on practical change that stands the test of time — creating stronger communities, restoring the natural world and building the conditions in which people and places can thrive.
