<a name="contentStart"></a> THE LEADING ENVIRONMENT IN BRUSSELS FOR ROLLING OUT YOUR PROJECT

 

## Give your innovation lasting momentum

 

Joining BLSI **statistically increases your chances of success by 33%**. While 63% of Brussels-based companies are still in business after five years, our incubated companies boast a remarkable success rate of 84%. BLSI pulls companies out of isolation – one of the main factors behind failure – thanks to a unique community of peers and experts.

Located on the UCLouvain campus, right next to the Saint-Luc University Clinics, BLSI supports entrepreneurs in setting up innovative and technology-driven businesses. With the backing of the Brussels-Capital Region, BLSI guarantees a neutral and impartial public framework for your project.

While health and life sciences are our traditional core areas (e-health, MedTech, Biotech), BLSI is the home base for any ambitious, innovative project. We offer **ongoing strategic support** and modular workspaces (offices and labs) to accelerate your commercial development.
