Having an independent association of technology users like Beltug is highly important: to enable a true digital transformation, exchanging experience and data with peers and partners is critical.  Also, when new policies are being developed, you absolutely need access to an independent platform that allows peers to engage in conversations in a transparent and open atmosphere.

Beltug is all about connecting people.  The opportunity to compare our security maturity with the strategy and maturity of other sectors and organisations was priceless to Kinepolis.

Bjorn Van Reet, CIO, Kinepolis

Beltug at its best: always topical subjects on the agenda – at times controversial – topped off with the contributions of experts from the field. Highly valuable as a source of pragmatic knowledge and inspiration.

Beert Vanden Eynde, AIV – DPO, FPS Public Health

The opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience, cross-sector and with true experts, is an important added value Beltug offers Agfa.  Through the open consultations with the DPA and with the minister responsible for Privacy, we have been able to achieve pragmatic, hands-on solutions to our challenges.

Our Beltug membership means great networking, in a vivid digital community that exchanges value experiences, and a valuable documentation library full of useful information and practical templates.

Koen Van Loo, CIO, Renson

The documents Beltug makes available to its members – papers, recommendations, checklists – are a big help in my job. They are an invaluable source of knowledge and inspiration I often use to avoid double work and to avoid re-inventing the wheel.

Wim Nagels, CIO, DPD

For a governmental organisation like FPS BOSA, it is vital to keep a finger on the pulse of innovation: at universities, in the private sector, in the research domain, etc. Working with Beltug is an obvious choice for us. Beltug allows us to exchange knowledge with cross-sector peers, and investigate how we can engage in new partnerships and initiatives.

Christine Copers, Innovation Manager, DG Digital Transformation

The Beltug approach is unique: bringing people together cross-sector,
with different profiles but with solid expertise, for organised, in-depth discussions on topical themes and concerns.  It is an interesting community for us to be part of.  Beltug really does defend the interests of the ICT business users, towards vendors and government.

Annemie Depuydt, Directeur ICTS, KU Leuven

We are excited to be part of the Beltug network and experience it as value-added in many different ways. For example, when we had a question about privacy tools, Beltug promptly facilitated a workshop with peer DPOs in this network, which resulted in sharing very interesting insights and best-practices.

Koen De Maere, Data Protection Office, BASF Group

Beltug offers the opportunity to share knowledge and best practices among peers and cross-sector. Being a member, and thus a part of the community, leverages this knowledge for Port of Antwerp. The more member organisations Beltug has, the stronger their group voice in conversations with policy makers and other stakeholders.

Erwin Verstraelen, Chief Digital and Innovation Officer, Port of Antwerp

Over the years, I’ve seen Beltug grow and weigh on the agenda of both business and politics. They are a key stakeholder in making sure digital is high on the agenda in Belgium.
