Our Story: Innovation Born from Necessity

Our journey started with the vision of our founder, Mike Vanderroost, who is also our Chief Scientific Officer. He noticed the inefficiencies in manual trend tracking and developed a model to analyse trends from textual data. Vincent Defour, our Chief Growth Officer, recognised the potential of this model and joined to expand this vision. Mathias Colpaert, our Chief Technology Officer, completes our founding team. Together, we turned Trensition from a concept to reality, driven by corporate interest and our shared passion for transformative solutions.
