Floris Ampe

Floris Ampe is a retired PwC Belgium Consulting Partner who served on the PwC Europe board for Data & Analytics, Cyber and Digital — and led PwC's Global Public Sector Consulting and EMEA Cyber practices across London, Frankfurt, and worldwide.

Today he serves as an independent director and audit committee member across private companies and public institutions, and as a judge at the Ondernemingsrechtbank Antwerpen handling ICT, IP, and public procurement cases. He holds CISA, CGEIT, CIA, TOGAF, and ISO 27001 certifications — credentials earned when most directors had never heard the words "data governance."

He has deliberately and continuously stayed current on AI: certified in AI Python (DeepLearning.AI), prompt engineering for LLMs (Vanderbilt University), building AI applications (Scrimba), and Google Cloud Machine Learning Fundamentals. Most board members talk about AI. Floris understands it technically, strategically, and from a governance perspective.

What I bring to a board
01
AI Governance,
not AI enthusiasm

Boards face real liability around AI decisions. Floris brings certified technical knowledge — AI Python, LLM prompt engineering, AI app development — combined with CISA, CGEIT, and ISO 27001 credentials to ask the right questions and spot the right risks before they become headlines.

02
Technology credibility
that holds up

Former PwC Europe board member for Data & Analytics, Cyber and Digital. Commercial judge handling ICT and IP cases. TOGAF enterprise architect. If your board needs someone who can meaningfully challenge the CTO or CDO, that requires more than a strategy background.

03
Active mandates,
diverse sectors

Currently serving in innovation-driven industry (Verhaert), electrical infrastructure (Eluxa), city government (Antwerp), public agencies, and the judiciary. That breadth matters when your organisation sits at the intersection of technology, regulation, and accountability.
