Description de la société

ScioTeq provides high-tech visualization solutions for three of the world's most critical environments: Avionics, Defense & Security and Air Traffic Control. It may sound abstract, but imagine high-tech displays where pilots or military forces can read crucial information on. That's exactly what we do!

ScioTeq is mainly active in the air, making displays for the cockpit. ScioTeq is actively involved in the reformation of the way we fly: greener, more efficient, safer and who knows one day unmanned. To achieve this, they are continuously developing the latest innovations such as IoT, AI, data streaming and sensor-based navigation. ScioTeq is one of the few Belgian high-tech companies that has its own development, production and after-sales in house. The team with diverse expertise in both R&D, production, assembly of the screens and aftersales, helps from Belgium to visualize the most demanding environments in the world.
