Meet AREA42, the trade innovation ecosystem

After several months in stealth mode, AREA42 is now live. AREA42 aims at creating and managing a risk-savvy innovation ecosystem focused on trade. We support companies who want to recode trade for the digital era.

Together with disruptors, technologists and visionaries, we build a more fertile trade environment. We co-design ambitious visions. We experiment and launch new solutions. We turn innovations into new growth engines.

We are backed by Credendo, the Export Credit Agency from Belgium and the most trusted leader in trade credit insurance and surety bonds. Our first basecamps are Paris (the photo is from our first office at WeWork Lafayette in Paris) and Brussels, but our playground is Europe and the world.

Besides working hard on our first ventures, we are hiring ~10 unstoppable innovators to grow our team. If you know top talent looking for a new challenge, send them our way. To keep in touch, follow us on LinkedIn and on AngelList.
