Career history
In the news
- This week, we moved into our new office at the Wintercircus Ghent thanks to the imec.istart program. And honestly, it’s hard not to smile when you arrive at the office in the morning. 😊 What a beautiful and inspiring place to build and grow HelloTriangle.
- Making simple what used to be complex, that's our goal.
- Excited to be part of the new imec.istart Summer 2026 cohort! A big thank you to the imec.istart team for believing in our vision and welcoming HelloTriangle. We're looking forward to working with the coaches, partners, and other startups in the program as we take the next steps.
- Having worked on patient-specific simulations for thousands of patients, I've seen firsthand how important it is to create scalable workflows. The challenge is rarely the simulation itself. It's building a process that can be applied efficiently and consistently across hundreds or thousands of models. This post shows how we're tackling that challenge at HelloTriangle.
- The use of physics-based simulations like FEA and CFD has come a long way in the medical device industry. In many companies, simulations are used at different stages of the development process: from initial concept exploration to design optimization and V&V. Some even use patient-specific models to test their designs. But I don't think we have reached the full potential yet. A key challenge is that a lot of manual work is still required when setting up simulations and analysing results. Changing design parameters often means
