The goal is to provide an opportunity for employment, business creation, or career building to anyone, of any age, gender, or location, based on motivation and without prerequisites or certification. For this, MolenGeek proposes 3 poles that contribute to this rise: Diverse, varied and specialized training A coworking space with support and coaching sessions Events to stay on top of things and to challenge candidates. Thus, the future actors of the digital world will be able to create, develop and test their own project but also integrate others.

The project quickly met with success, especially with Alexander De Croo, and the technological world such as Dell, Microsoft, Innoviris or Google also began to show interest in MolenGeek.
