At Titeca pro accountants & experts, we are committed every day to supporting SMEs in their growth, innovation and challenges. That's why we are proud of our partnership with Vlerick Business School for the establishment of the Centre for Excellence in SME Management or SME Centre for short, a unique knowledge and expertise center that focuses entirely on the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises.
A mainstay for SMEs
SMEs are the engine of our economy, but often face complex issues: how to stay competitive, sustainable and innovative in an ever-changing market? The SME Centre offers a combination of academic research and hands-on insights to support entrepreneurs in this endeavor.
The focus is on three crucial pillars:
- Growth: How can SMEs expand their business without losing their unique identity?
- Innovation: What strategies and tools are needed to stay ahead?
- Leadership: How do you strengthen your leadership skills to take your team and company to new heights?
The center brings together academic experts, hands-on partners such as Titeca and entrepreneurs in an innovative community.
Our role as a partner
As a trusted partner of SMEs, we add our practical experience and expertise in accounting, taxation and business consulting to this project. Our daily involvement with entrepreneurs means that we know what is going on in the market and how to help companies move forward in a concrete way.
"Our partnership with the KMO Centre perfectly aligns with our ambition to not only support entrepreneurs, but also help them grow with us," said Matthias Wallaeys, partner and strategy expert at Titeca. "Sharing insights and developing practical solutions are essential to making entrepreneurs stronger and more resilient."
What does this mean for entrepreneurs?
