The Belgian technology sector attracted €1.09 billion in capital during the first six months of 2026, with funding concentrated in a handful of outsized transactions rather than distributed evenly across the ecosystem. The analytics firm Kpler captured approximately 79 per cent of all capital deployed, securing €859.2 million in a single round that dwarfed activity elsewhere in the market.
Despite the dominance of large deals at the top end, early-stage investment remained active across multiple verticals. Series A rounds accumulated roughly €50 million in total funding, while seed-stage companies gathered close to €38 million. Pre-seed financing, the earliest stage of venture capital, reached approximately €5.5 million.
Capital flowed into a diverse set of industries beyond analytics. Software companies secured around €97.6 million, transportation ventures attracted €35.5 million, and smaller allocations went to fintech, deeptech, healthcare, agritech and artificial intelligence. Additional pockets of investment emerged in logistics, recruitment, foodtech, legaltech and other emerging sectors.
The H1 2026 funding landscape in Belgium reflected a bifurcated market: robust early-stage deal flow across numerous industries and company stages, offset by the outsized influence of a small number of growth-stage and later-round transactions that accounted for the bulk of deployed capital.
