In a 2021 interview, Martijn Hoogeveen criticized the Dutch government's COVID-19 approach, calling it "crimineel" (criminal) for not prioritizing the general interest over economic concerns, and suggested that the government should promote the flu vaccine more due to indications it protects against COVID-19 mortality. He also discussed his background in psychology and artificial intelligence, and his role as a former part-time professor of multimedia at the Open University while running a data company with about 250 employees. During a 2011 panel discussion, Hoogeveen stated that major brands like HP and Philips had shifted marketing subsidies from physical retailers to online channels to increase margins. He also advised against buying shares in Facebook or Google, calling them "veel te duur" (much too expensive), and noted that the rapid growth of Facebook and Groupon indicated a trend toward "flash business."
