“On National Compliment Day, we want to cast the spotlight on every start-up, because they deserve it. There are those who are currently having a very tough time. And for them, we want to offer some extra encouragement.

They are an inspiration for the entire entrepreneurial world.”

Lode Uytterschaut, CEO Start it @KBC
