Our partners
LE(J)ON is a collaboration between the city of Leuven, KU Leuven, UCLL, LUCA School of Arts and is part of the ecosystem for young entrepreneurs in Flanders. VLAIO supports this ecosystem to stimulate entrepreneurial spirit and entrepreneurship among young people, and more specifically among students. This is how we help young people who are still studying, but who already want to start a business, on their way.
