- This week, SEMANTiCS Conference 2026 is taking place right here in Ghent at De Bijloke. 📍 Our submission "Semantic Technologies for Situational Awareness in Critical Care Medicine" has been accepted for the practitioners track. 🎉 Robbe Claeys, our Graph Data Scientist and PhD researcher working on semantic technologies and Henri Van Overmeire will be there to talk through how we use semantic technologies to bring structure and meaning to critical care data inside ontarget. Critical care data comes from many sources,
- No pilot takes off without a detailed flight plan. So should an anesthesia team? ✈️ 𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 combines patient data, device data and medical knowledge into clinical insights that stay fully traceable, not a black box. The team gets the why, not just the what. 💡 Swipe through to see what that looks like. #PointCaré #ontarget #CriticalCare #MedTech #HealthcareAI #Anesthesiology
- There's a version of Henri you don't see in a product demo. Our founder Henri Van Overmeire was recently a guest on "drie boeken," a podcast where guests share the three books that shaped them most. He talks about the physics professor who once recommended him a book on mathematics and intelligence, and the friend he read the poet Jotie T'Hooft with in high school while The Doors played in the background. It's a conversation about free thinkers, absurdism, and philosophy, and somewhere in there a tour with a reggae band. Ask
- Meet Jonathan Vervaeke, PointCaré's new Senior Systems Engineer! Jonathan brings systems experience directly relevant to where we're headed. He will pave the way for modern and secure delivery flows while also helping us build a more robust IT foundation for our continued growth. For the past 6 years, he worked as a Senior Staff Engineer at a start-up building high-resolution imaging technology for surgical oncology, spanning Linux systems, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, DevOps, and the compliance groundwork that comes
- What if every patient had their own digital twin that predicts how their body will respond before you ever pick up a syringe? 🧠 Our founder Henri Van Overmeire is co-author on a new paper in Anesthesiology Open: “Digital Twins in Anesthesia and Critical Care”. 📝 The paper makes a clear case: digital twins, continuously updated virtual models of an individual patient, could move anesthesia and critical care away from population averages and toward truly personalized decision-making. It's a shift that cardiology, neurology,
- Extra rocket fuel for PointCaré! 🚀 We’ve just closed an additional funding round: €1.7M to accelerate our MDR journey, launch our first hospital deployments, and take PointCaré international. The OR is one of the most data-rich environments in healthcare, and still one of the most fragmented. Every second, dozens of signals fire, disconnected from each other and from the knowledge that gives them meaning. We started PointCaré to close that gap: to build the intelligence layer that critical care runs on, and with it, the
- The Intelligent OR: How Agentic AI Is Transforming Perioperative Care. 👉 Imagine an AI system that performs a comprehensive preoperative assessment, synthesizing patient history, laboratory results, medications, and current evidence into a personalized anesthesia plan within seconds. During surgery, the same system continuously supports the anesthesia team with protocol-driven recommendations, risk prediction, and optimized intraoperative management tailored to the patient's evolving condition. By combining rapid clinical insight
- In critical care, every second counts. Great to be recognized by PwC Belgium as innovators shaping the future of lifesaving technology. Our founder and CMO, Dr. Henri Van Overmeire, explains it best in this video, selected alongside other innovative startups.
