On Thursday, 12 March 2026 at 9:15 a.m., host Mariska Blommaert opened the 10th edition of Credit Expo, the annual highlight of the Belgian credit management sector, at De Montil in Affligem. The anniversary edition focused on the theme “10 Years of Evolution in Credit Management: Past, Present & Future” and attracted a record-breaking 380 attendees.
Credit Expo Belgium’s proven conference format, focusing on knowledge sharing and extensive networking opportunities for credit and finance professionals, once again demonstrated its added value. With 30 exhibitors and 30 presentations, the event had plenty to offer its 380 attendees.
The networking area, featuring four complimentary catering stations, provided ample opportunity to enjoy refreshments and connect with fellow professionals throughout the day. The presentations and seminars covered a wide variety of topics and customer cases, all delivered to a very high standard.
The many positive reactions from partners and visitors on LinkedIn perfectly captured the atmosphere and value of the event.
Thank You to All Our Partners
Organisers Serge van Groningen and Bart Spiessens:
“We would like to thank all our partners, whose support, commitment and trust helped make Credit Expo Belgium 2026 such a success. We would particularly like to thank our Platinum Partners POM and IvKM, as well as our Gold and Silver Partners. Credit Expo would not be possible without them, and their support enabled all 380 attendees to enjoy a truly memorable conference.”
Trends Business Information and Sentometrics Win the 2026 IvKM Credit Management Innovation Award
This year, seven companies were nominated for the seventh edition of the IvKM Credit Management Innovation Award: Digiteal, Doccle, Isabel, la-on, Payt, POM and Trends Business Information.
Each nominee had the opportunity to demonstrate to IvKM’s expert jury how they had contributed to innovation in credit management. All the pitches were well substantiated, leaving the jury with a difficult decision.
The award, a bouquet of flowers and the traditional bottle of sparkling wine ultimately went to the winners, Trends Business Information and its partner Sentometrics.
Following the award ceremony, the 10th edition of Credit Expo Belgium concluded with a networking reception. It was a memorable day that visitors and partners can look back on with great satisfaction.
