SPACEBEL was established in 1988 in order to promote and develop, within the space industry, the ICT skills available in Belgium, and to reinforce the presence of the Walloon industry in space. Since its creation SPB has gradually expanded with, nowadays, offices in Belgium (Liege and Hoeilaart), France (Toulouse) and Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City). Initially focused onto the space activities, SPB has contributed to the success of numerous programs of the European Space Agency.
In 1998, SPB extended the scope of its space activities to include Geo-Management and Earth-Observation services when DA VINCI was merged with SPB. Today, SPB markets decision support systems for territory and environment management using Earth Observation data.
