Tanguy Van Regemorter

Innovation Strategist & Passionate Entrepreneur
15 years turning bold ideas into industrial realities, where science, business, and agility intersect.
From the start of my career, I’ve been driven by one belief: innovation thrives at the crossroads of scientific rigor, creativity, and relentless execution. Whether leading R&D projects for industry giants like GSK and UCB, founding Manetco, or mentoring startups, my mission has always been the same: turning complex challenges into tangible opportunities.

What drives me?

Bridging the gap between research and market, translating technical concepts into winning business strategies.
Building agile ecosystems: From EU consortia to transatlantic partnerships, I thrive on connecting the right expertise to speed up innovation.
"Hands-on" innovation: Whether prototyping microfluidic devices or experimenting with new materials with my kids (yes, science is a family affair!), I believe in learning by doing.

My journey at a glance:
✅ Founder of Manetco: Developing technologies for the pharma/chemical industries with a lean, collaborative approach.
✅ Partnership Builder: Negotiating contracts with leaders (GSK, UCB) and securing R&D funding (EU, regional).
✅ Mentor & Board Member: Supporting startups and SMEs in structuring and scaling their businesses.
✅ Researcher with an Entrepreneurial Spirit: 8 scientific publications, but also a passion for the field — from labs to prototyping workshops.
