After his successful novel Eus, he quickly broke free from the label 'immigrant writer.' Eus is a writer who has an opinion on everything.
Özcan Akyol is, as can be read in his columns, enormously socially engaged. From the education system to the integration debate, he can speak about it from personal experience. But also Dutch politics, reading promotion, entrepreneurship, and sports are among his areas of interest.
For this reason, Eus has been a sought-after chairperson and moderator for years. Anyone looking for a versatile interviewer, an experienced moderator, or someone who can steer a conference in the right direction should turn to him. He can conduct discussions on sensitive topics with finesse. Eus does this with substance, humor, knowledge, directness, and vulnerability. The ideal lever to connect people with each other.
Although the topics he is asked to cover can vary widely, as has been shown in the past, his personal perspective does not. When asked, he actively participates. He also has the ability to fully serve the needs of his clients.
