"Whatever happened yesterday I cannot do anything about, tomorrow, who knows what will happen; but today I can control. This is how I took control of my life and it has served me well."
Born amid the upheaval of German-occupied Holland in 1940, Eddy Boas's early years were cast in the shadow of the Holocaust.
At just three years old, he and his family were imprisoned in the camps of Westerbork and Bergen-Belsen, emerging together against all odds.
Eddy’s family immigrated to Australia in March 1954 to start a new chapter in life. He carved out a successful path in business, mingling with world leaders and cementing his status as an esteemed international businessman.
Today, Eddy shares insights on resilience, imparting lessons from history’s dark chapters to inspire a brighter collective future.
