Demo Day – Start it @CBC 2026

The audience has a vote: Start it @CBC brings its startup pitches, an alumni panel and an evening with the local entrepreneurial community to the Cercle du Lac.

About this event

At this Demo Day, founders put the progress of their businesses into words on stage, and the audience helps choose its favourite projects. The pitch competition gives entrepreneurs, investors and mentors a shared starting point for conversations about the ideas and people emerging from the accelerator. Before the pitches, an alumni panel brings together Nelly Gody of Hazelly Hairlove, Thomas Farrauto of Comitty and Louis-Pierre Martin of Rainbow Top. The evening then moves from presentations and prizes to a networking dinner, allowing the discussion to continue beyond the stage. Join Start it @CBC on 9 November 2026 at the Cercle du Lac in Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve. Welcome begins at 17:00; the evening continues until 22:00. Admission is free with registration, with limited places.
