Flanders Technology Tour 2025 🚀


Following the great success of last year’s edition, we’re bringing back De Slimste Ronde—but with even more ambition! And we’d love to have you with us.

Introducing the Flanders Technology Tour!

New name, same mission: exploring the best of innovation and technology in Flanders. Not Silicon Valley, China, or Dubai, but right here in our own backyard.

Our quest: How can we move forward faster, together?For three action-packed days, we’ll take you on a whirlwind tour of Flanders’ most groundbreaking companies, where you’ll hear game-changing stories, witness mind-blowing innovations, and experience things you didn’t even know were possible.

From the bustling streets of Antwerp to the heart of Brussels, and finally, the creative pulse of Ghent, this isn’t just a trip—it’s a front-row seat to the future.

And rest assured, we’ll indulge in Flanders’ finest culinary delights along the way. The next big idea might just be one conversation away.
