The Circle is not a network

Summit Circle is a curated, high-trust community of entrepreneurs and professionals who have already built something meaningful — and are now looking for perspective, not validation.

Founded by Willem Linschoten and Bo Kasten, the Circle brings together a carefully selected group of individuals, primarily within IT, cybersecurity, and adjacent industries. Each member contributes actively by sharing knowledge, insights, and high-quality opportunities.

Dialoque over broadcast

There is no stage here. No pitching, no self-promotion, no performance. We value listening as much as speaking – and question as much as answers. Every member influences the quality of the whole.

Summit Circle exists for those who understand that growth does not always come from more — but from better conversations, at the right height, with the right people.

We value listening as much as speaking – and question as much as answers.

Sharing Leads & Creating Mutual Value

A core principle of Summit Circle is that valuable opportunities are shared within the community.


• Members gain access to new business opportunities
• Collaborations are built on trust and relevance
• The community grows through shared success


This creates a system where contribution and value go hand in hand.

Target Audience

• Experts in IT and cybersecurity
• Consultants, entrepreneurs, and business developers
• Decision-makers and well-connected individuals
• Professionals actively involved in growth and deal-making

Concept & Approach

Summit Circle operates through structured, high-impact online sessions held on a regular basis.

Each session includes:

  • A brief introduction and updates
  • A focused spotlight session by one member, sharing their expertise, services, and ideal client profile
  • Open discussion and interaction
  • Identification of concrete business opportunities

Our approach is built on three core pillars:

  • Trust and transparency
  • Active participation
  • A strong focus on tangible business outcomes

This ensures that every session delivers real value to all members.

Unique Value Proposition

Summit Circle stands out through a combination of exclusivity, structure, and results:

  • Curated membership → Only high-quality, relevant professionals
  • Active networking → Selective membership
  • Business-driven focus → Conversations lead to opportunities
  • Shared success mindset → Growth is collective, not individual
