Start it @KBC

TLDR

Belgium's largest startup accelerator, backed by KBC bank and operating across multiple Belgian cities.

Overview

Start it @KBC is Belgium's largest startup accelerator, with a portfolio of over 1,000 startups supported since its founding. The program is backed by KBC, one of Belgium's largest banks, and operates hubs in Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Leuven, and other cities.

The accelerator offers coaching, networking, office space, and access to the KBC financial ecosystem. It positions itself as sector-agnostic, though Fintech and B2B SaaS are well-represented in its portfolio.

Notes

Good ecosystem partner for broad Belgian startup coverage. Less relevant for deep tech or specialized sector coverage, but strong for tracking early-stage deal flow.
