It's summertime and it's time for Industrya to launch its second open call for projects.

Launched on 7 September of this year, Industrya's call for applications came to a close. More than 40 start-up/scale-up companies active in the energy, industry 4.0 and new materials sectors responded to this first call for projects.

Industrya operates exclusively in the Industry 4.0 energy and new materials sectors. But what exactly is industry 4.0? John Cockerill’s CTO Jean Jouet takes the time to explain this vast concept.

Welcome to Thibaud Le Séguillon who is joining Industrya as Chief Operating Officer!

"Industrya brings together many skills in a very specialized area. It's quite unique, obviously apart from the 42M € that will also be invested in companies." We asked 3 questions to Gaëtan Servais, CEO of Noshaq.

We at SFPI-FPIM are convinced that the energy transition will be one of the major challenges in the coming years. We are very positive about the results Industrya will generate in a few years in this matter.

With our WING by Digital Wallonia, we will bring to Industrya a team that has a specific knowledge in the field of support and especially financing. Plus, we can provide funding for projects that have reached a critical size.

"With Industrya we now have an ecosystem, a financial solution, and a fund at our disposal. Try it. If it works, it will be an added value for you and for the team around you, as well as for the economy in general". We asked 3 questions to Tom Vanham (CEO of LRM)
