Continuous VLAIO support for innovative starters with strong growth potential: a fixed grant of EUR 50,000 plus coaching by a VLAIO business advisor, to develop a proof of concept and/or proof of business. Open to small companies less than two years old established in the Flemish Region; the budgeted effort must represent at least one person-year or EUR 70,000 in costs. Applications always go through one — and only one — VLAIO partner, which forwards a limited number of candidates; online submission and a pitch before a jury follow. Remaining pitch days in 2026 (checked on 17 September 2026): 5, 6 and 8 October, 9, 10 and 12 November, and 7, 8 and 10 December. If an evaluation period is full, you move to the next one.
