He worked in New York from 1984 to 1989 and in London in 1993 and has studied in both cities and practiced European law in Brussels. Kleyn has published numerous writings and regularly speaks at conferences. He also serves on the boards of Stichting Het Grachtenhuis and Eye.

John Smits works as an independent consultant. He studied business economics and econometrics in Tilburg and subsequently held executive positions at Océ, Campina Melkunie and Randstad.

Graphic designer Irma Boom has been a senior critic at Yale University in the United States since 1992 and gives workshops all over the world. The University of Amsterdam library is collecting all her work. Her designs are also part of the permanent collection at New York's Museum of Modern Art.

José Teunissen has been a lecturer in fashion design at ArtEZ, the Arnhem Academy of Art and Design, since 2002.
