Join us on September 17th at the Rabobank office in Utrecht for an inspiring Mendix Meetup that bridges the gap between enterprise-grade development and practical, real-world application design.
In our first session, we’ll dive into the challenge of integrating a biweekly evolving design system into Mendix. Learn how Rabobank connects its Rabo Design System to Mendix (MRDS), and how to create a flexible, scalable design system that keeps pace with change, without slowing down development.
At Rabobank, building applications isn’t just about speed: it’s about security, compliance, and scalability in a highly regulated environment. In our second session, we’ll share ten key lessons learned from using Mendix in banking, translating complex topics like legislation and compliance into clear, actionable insights you can apply to any Mendix app. Whether you're working in finance or not, these principles will help you build safer, more robust applications.
Both sessions are designed to provide valuable insights any Mendix developer can use, whether you work in the banking sector or not. Expect practical takeaways, architectural insights, and fresh ideas you can immediately apply in your own projects.
Come for the knowledge, stay for the networking, and leave with new ideas to take your Mendix apps to the next level.
Whether by organizing meetups or designing Capture the Flag challenges, as a Mendix MVP and well-known face within the community, Wouter has been contributing to the ecosystem for years. With a background rooted in hands-on development, he now serves as Product Owner of the Mendix Platform Team at Rabobank.
Bringing together deep technical expertise and platform-level oversight, Wouter offers a unique perspective on how Mendix operates within a highly regulated banking environment. In his session, he’ll share insights into compliance, platform strategy, and how his team enables engineers across the bank to build faster, safer, and more efficiently.
Where Wouter is a true all-rounder, Sophie stands out through her strong specialization in Mendix front-end development. With a passion for SCSS and clean design, she focuses on building user interfaces that work seamlessly for both end users and developers.
Sophie has worked extensively on design systems and Mendix UI modules, often building them from the ground up. At Rabobank, however, she faces a different challenge: working within an existing module tied to a bank-wide design system that evolves every two weeks. In this session, she’ll share how to stay aligned with constant changes, the processes behind it, and practical lessons for keeping your UI scalable and maintainable in a dynamic environment.
The Meetup will be held at Rabobank headquarters, located on the Croeselaan in Utrecht. More details will follow!
The Mendix Community Meetups are about meeting other makers, sharing knowledge, and learning something new.
