Fragmented funds
The reason young tech companies leave Belgium often lies in their inability to attract the necessary funding to continue their growth. Johan Van Overtveldt, Minister of Finance: “We do have capital in Belgium, but it’s very fragmented. This splintering of funds poses problems to large investment rounds of EUR 10 to 50 million. Our initiative will boost the available capital for tech companies, enabling them to take on the world, while remaining in Belgium.”
