THELIS MARKS ITS 30TH ANNIVERSARY AND OPENS ITS NEW PREMISES IN NANINNE
On Wednesday, 22 October, the company Thelis had two reasons to celebrate: its managers opened their new installations on the last site remaining for sale at the Naninne business park, in the presence of many guests, and they marked the company's thirtieth anniversary. The perfect opportunity for the CEO, Frédéric Peters, to turn the spotlight on all his staff.
RECORD: TAKERS FOUND FOR 18 RELAY BUILDING MODULES AFTER THE SUMMER BREAK
Takers were found for 18 modules in the BEP Expansion économique relay halls and business centres during the summer of 2019: a record that reflects the positive trend in the establishment of young companies and start-ups in the Province of Namur.
Here they benefit from adapted spaces as well as from the assistance of professional, experienced advisers to give them a helping hand, which can sometimes prove very useful in such projects undertaken by entrepreneurs.
A record figure for the Namur organisation.
Another step has just marked the collaboration, dating back over ten years, between the BEP and Fytofend: this former spin-off of the University of Namur has just moved into its brand-new buildings at Crealys®.
