WHY HARDWARE
UNLOCKED?

Flanders has tremendously strong hardware companies, from startups to established names. We believe that they can become even better and faster by connecting them with each other, thus creating the most successful hardware region in Europe.

Leuven MindGate aims to bring together many relevant players within some key business domains at its events and member gatherings.

As the hardware domain is one of the most innovative and high-profile sectors within the broad Leuven region, adding a hardware event to their broad events portfolio was a no-brainer.

At the same time, Comate - as a leading player in the hardware field - had the intention to bring the hardware community together on a full-day event.

The Province of Flemish Brabant also wanted to put their back into a broad event that puts the regional hardware scene in the spotlight.

If you put all these puzzle pieces together, you’ll get 'Hardware Unlocked' , a full-day event where hardware entrepreneurs from all over Flanders gather to learn from the experts that Comate, Leuven MindGate, and the Province have united.
