The PortXL Antwerp program acts as a local acceleration hub, and is centred around building client relations in the local ecosystem and matching start-ups with our partners.
With a unique fast-track program that is different from Rotterdam and Singapore’s global program, Antwerp’s acceleration formula consists of 10 days (spread over a period of 3 months), with a special focus on validating use-case and generating client leads.
On October 18, Antwerp conducted the first-ever Selection Day, with intensive day of pitching and conversations with representatives from DEME, MSC and Port of Antwerp and EY across business functions – such as innovation, sales, logistics, operations, and maritime and logistics advisory.

Xetal is proud to announce to have been selected among the six start-ups convinced PortXL partners with concrete interested shown by all three for different use cases based on our Yugen sensor for both indoor and outdoor applications.
