Qaelum is one of ten start-ups to watch in 2017 according to Leuven MindGate!

Leuven MindGate is an organisation that positions the Leuven region as a premier destination for Health, High-Tech and Creativity. By connecting organisations as well as individuals in a unique ecosystem, its mission is to inspire innovation and increase interdisciplinary collaborations for the entire region.

At the end of 2016, Leuven Mindgate communicated a list of ten successful start-ups, they believe should be watched in 2017.

We are very honoured to be mentioned as one of them!

“2016 was another favourable year for entrepreneurs. Many interdisciplinary collaborations between Leuven-based knowledge institutes, companies and organisations were made, backed by a government offering support in both means and infrastructure. By doing so, these players contributed to what the Leuven MindGate ecosystem does best: creating success stories for our everyday life.

Meanwhile, local and international talent continuously combines entrepreneurship with innovative ideas to create our region’s future forefront under the form of start-ups, whether a spin-off company backed by a knowledge institute or a 'lone wolf' with an innovative idea, ready to storm the world.

The Leuven MindGate region hosts a variety of these kinds. We've made an alphabetic list of 10 start-ups which had a great run during 2016 and are widely regarded to repeat that success for 2017. Keep your eyes peeled for these 10 start-ups!”
