Business

The bond between a mentor and mentee often is the basis for new and unexpected ventures. With trust and experience, a partner, believer or supporter is able to push an entrepreneur to new heights. In the pursuit of what comes next, we are proud partners of these visionaries.

Why we believe in business

Ambition. Drive. The will to advance and grow. Entrepreneurs make the difference, both now and tomorrow. For you, for us and everyone. These values are also important at Degroof Petercam. And we pursue them ourselves. For our clients, and for society.

JCI Flanders and Degroof Petercam

With full conviction, Degroof Petercam is joining JCI's initiative to prepare young, talented people for managerial positions. JCI, or in full Junior Chamber International, is an association widely spread in Belgium that promotes young people aged between 18 and 40 who want to grow personally and professionally.

The organization awards promising entrepreneurs with the Young Entrepreneur of the Year award, a prestigious prize that not only gives them great visibility, but also gives them access to exclusive master classes organized for them by Degroof Petercam, Paquay & Associates and Cresco Law. No ten commandments for a successful course here, but a meticulous analysis of finance, law, strategy and the management of a growth company. For more than 15 years, Paquay & Associates has been the sounding board for JCI Award nominees. Together with Degroof Petercam and Cresco Law, they now form an advisory body of international standing. Their master class will provide the winning companies with all the tools to advance to the next level and will be invaluable to the participants.

Partner Cresco Law

Cresco's DNA is strongly intertwined with that of Flemish entrepreneurs and their businesses. We believe in the importance of a strong ecosystem that allows entrepreneurs to deepen their knowledge in order to achieve their goals. Based on this vision, we decided to partner with JCI Flanders, with the aim of sharing our accumulated knowledge with the Young Flemish Entrepreneur. Based on our years of expertise, together with Degroof Petercam and Paquay & Associates, we offer young Flemish entrepreneurs an enriching but also challenging master class, during which they can test their own growth trajectory and related challenges against best practices in the market.
