AI Tech

Digital technology is transforming the world at lightning speed. In Brabant, we use AI to make systems smarter, safer, and more autonomous. Not as an end in itself, but as a means to tackle societal challenges and create economic value. Think of better healthcare, more efficient food production, more robust energy supply, and stronger cybersecurity. BOM drives this transition forward − with knowledge, courage, and a strong network.

Key Technologies

What makes AI in Brabant unique...

... is that we develop technology that truly matters. We build systems that learn autonomously, are transparent, and intrinsically secure. This strengthens our economic earning power, boosts labor productivity, and enhances our strategic autonomy. In an increasingly competitive world, that’s not a luxury it’s a necessity.

Why AI technology matters

AI is not a hype. It’s a key enabling technology that is already impacting how we live, work, and produce and it will continue to shape the world of tomorrow. Brabant has everything it takes to lead the way: a strong high-tech industry, a systems engineering approach, and an ecosystem that accelerates innovation. BOM brings it all together. We provide direction, invest strategically, and make the ecosystem visible both locally and internationally.

What BOM does

  • We guide innovative AI entrepreneurs from idea to application
  • We connect high tech companies with knowledge institutions and international partners
  • We invest in ventures that are shaping the world of tomorrow
  • We organise meetings, challenges, and missions to drive innovation
  • We make AI tangible: from supercomputing to cybersecurity

For a stronger Brabant

Are you an entrepreneur, researcher, or investor? Then Brabant offers an AI Tech ecosystem that will help you move forward. BOM accelerates growth, opens doors, and enables international scaling. Together, we build smart solutions that truly matter, for Brabant, for the Netherlands, and for the world.

AI is a strategic instrument that determines whether we in Brabant can continue to design and produce systems that are leading worldwide. Without AI, we lose our overview. With AI, we keep a handle on growing complexity and create space for innovation.
