As anticipation builds for the upcoming European, national, and regional elections in Belgium, we’re excited to share our memorandum – an essential roadmap that outlines BVA’s vision for the pivotal role of venture capital (VC) and private equity (PE) in driving economic growth and durable prosperity. Our memorandum highlights the profound impact that strategic investment can have on driving innovation, creating jobs, and fueling sustainable economic development.

In our memorandum, we emphasise the critical role of venture capital and private equity as engines for progress. These forms of investment not only provide vital funding to innovative entrepreneurs but also cultivate dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystems. We firmly believe that sustainable wealth creation through VC and PE is built upon five key pillars: innovation, job creation, fostering local networks and domestic investment, promoting prosperity and economic security, and nurturing human capital. Through our advocacy and strategic initiatives, our aim is to strengthen these pillars and ensure that the benefits of investments are accessible to all.
