General information
- Short Summary
- This award-winning Belgian start-up produces a unique type of mobile stages based on a compact, sustainable & modular patented scissor design that can be installed very quickly. They can also be used as event structures (domes, stages) or temporary stands, and even be custom-designed to suit the user’s needs (modular approach). They are looking for partners in the staging world (eg sound and light equipment suppliers), aligning with specific uses, needs, and specs identified together.
- Full Description
-
This award-winning Belgian start-up is originally a university spin-off. It produces a unique type of temporary structures and coverings that are pre-constructed and instantly deployable, thereby significantly reducing transport, assembly, installation costs, and time for your event, with amazing aesthetic appeal. These structures are easy to set up, compact during transport and have a unique patented scissor design.
They are mostly used as mobile stages but are multi-functional: they can also be used as tents covering, entrance arches, screens, brand activation and so much more.
The Belgian start-up actively seeks partners to broaden the implementation of its innovative event solutions beyond Belgium. The start-up is open to discussions regarding exclusive commercial partnerships with leading suppliers of sound and light equipment.
The Belgian startup is also committed on the path towards more sustainability: the design of their product is future-proof as it can be adapted in time because it is modular and replaceable (every piece of the product can be replaced). All the pieces can be re-used across almost all of the structures because they didn’t conceive a product, but rather a kit adaptable to create different shapes. They manufacture everything in Belgium. main suppliers are Belgian companies and the recycled aluminum comes from Belgium. The Belgian start-up also has partners to upscale the PES branded (and non-personalized) membranes of its customers to make poufs, wallets, backpacks, and so on. - Advantages and Innovations
