## Overview
Founded in 2021 by Hans Stevens (https://techwiki.ai/people/hans-stevens/llms.txt) and Jeroen Plasman (https://techwiki.ai/people/jeroen-plasman/llms.txt), AI-Blox develops modular hardware systems that enable the deployment of AI models at the edge, directly in industrial environments without cloud dependency. The company is an Nvidia Preferred Partner, with its platform supporting up to 18 Nvidia Jetson processor configurations on a single architecture, enabling customers to upgrade compute without replacing the full hardware stack.

Target applications include autonomous vehicles, industrial robots, smart factories, and any industrial environment where real-time AI inference requires low-latency, on-premise processing. The modular approach reduces procurement complexity for integrators and OEMs building AI-powered industrial systems.

AI-Blox closed its first external funding round with Smartfin (https://techwiki.ai/investors/smartfin/llms.txt) as lead investor, alongside finance&invest.Brussels (https://techwiki.ai/cities/brussels/llms.txt). The company was also an imec.istart (https://techwiki.ai/investors/imec-istart/llms.txt) portfolio company, giving it access to the Flemish deep tech startup ecosystem. It was named a Rising Star finalist in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Belgium (https://techwiki.ai/events/deloitte-fast-50/llms.txt) 2025.
