Peek

Check out how Vanessa Viganò, educationalist at the Université de Montpellier, explains how Peek is used with students of CHARM-EU master’s, but also on the University of Montpellier campus or as part of a team building for students or even for staff! Great work, Vanessa.

Reflecting on an amazing 2024 – thank you for being part of it! 🌍✨ As 2024 comes to a close, we at Peek want to take a moment to reflect on an incredible year and express our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing customers, partners, and supporters. Here are just a few highlights: 🚀 Big milestones: February marked the launch of Peek 4.0 – a complete redesign that makes creating interactive excursions even more seamless and engaging (and many more new features after that, like custom maps!) 🌟 New faces: We welcomed Jack to our team as a Trip Designer. His expertise has been a fantastic addition! 🌍 Expanding horizons: This year brought exciting new pilot projects and customers, both in The Netherlands and abroad, helping us bring outdoor learning to more people than ever before. ✈️ International adventures: Anton traveled to France and Italy to assist in developing excursions on location – hands-on support that makes all the difference. 📢 Events that inspired us: We had the privilege of attending impactful gatherings like the SURF Onderwijsdagen, connecting with so many passionate individuals. 🎉 Community spirit: In June, we hosted Peek Day, where we gathered with users to share ideas, insights, and inspiration for the future. Thank you for being part of our journey and for helping us grow and improve. Here's to more adventures, innovation, and collaboration in 2025! Eric, Gerwald, Teun and Vincent

"A very functional app (without too much unnecessary fuss), user-friendly, and the option to integrate different types of questions per point is both fun and educational." Thanks Laura Govers, Prof. Dr. from Rijksuniversiteit Groningen! #peek #EdTech #schiermonnikoog

Vandaag ben ik samen met Anton Pijl voor Peek op de SURF #onderwijsdagen. Wie komt er (gratis!) een kaartje naar zijn collega sturen bij ons? 😁. We staan in de startuptuin! #ODW24

"Can we use the 'Algemene Hoogtekaart Nederland' in the Peek app?" Yes you can ➡ Last june, students from Wageningen University & Research tested a new app feature: a custom map for their excursion. The professor requested a map showcasing the AHN (‘Algemene Hoogtekaart Nederland’: Dutch height model). Since it has recently become possible in Peek to show customized maps per excursion, this was a perfect test case.

At Peek, we believe that the best ideas come from being in nature. Our passion for the outdoors is woven into everything we do. Whether it’s Teun and Gerwald on their mountainbikes or Vincent and Eric hitting the running trails, the team is always out exploring the world around us. This is why we’re so excited to help others experience and learn about nature through the Peek app. By creating fun, interactive excursions, we encourage everyone to get outside, discover new landscapes, and engage in meaningful conversations about the environment. As we say in Dutch, "Buiten is altijd beter" (Outside is always better)!

Organizing good excursions? Sometimes we also help our clients on location. Anton was lucky this time:

We’re excited to welcome three new members to the Peek community! 🤝 The Rijksuniversiteit Groningen has signed a license to bring Peek to the Faculty of Spatial Sciences for the upcoming year. 🙏 In New Zealand, we’ve just completed a successful pilot with Lincoln University (NZ), 🙌 ...and we’re gearing up for another pilot with Åbo Akademi University in Finland in the coming months. Welcome aboard!

Sometimes (or actually quite often 😅) we really regret not being there on excursions ourselves... check out this beautiful photo that students from Lincoln University (NZ) recently took on an excursion near Lake Pegasus, north of Christchurch, Aotearoa New Zealand. Thanks Dr Gillian Lawson!
