QbD Group Once Again Awarded Gold Label as Best Managed Company

QbD Group was reaffirmed as a Gold laureate in the Best Managed Companies program. The Best Managed Companies program assesses participants each year against a globally proven framework. It recognizes private companies that translate a clear strategy, strong competencies, and commitment to the company into solid financial results. The jury recognized QbD Group for its outstanding business performance and may carry the quality label for the coming year.

Best Managed Company 2024

This year, the Best Managed Companies program is celebrating its seventh edition in Belgium, with Deloitte Private, Econopolis, and KU Leuven looking for high-performing private companies in the Belgian business landscape. Throughout the process, the companies are guided by a Best Managed Companies coach from Deloitte Private who challenged QbD Group to reflect on its strategy, operational and financial processes.

This year, QbD Group was reaffirmed as a Gold laureate, marking their fifth consecutive year receiving the recognition as Best Managed Company.

Bart Van Acker, founder and CEO of the QbD Group:

“It is an honor that we have received the Gold label again and remain a member of this exclusive community of high-performing Belgian private companies. Our recognition as a Best Managed Company, five years in a row, proves that we have the strong assets to navigate through difficult times, and to face the challenges of tomorrow.”

Bruno Peelaers, Partner at Deloitte Private and Best Managed Companies Program Leader, says:

“All the laureates continue to impress us with their strong and sustainable growth, even amidst changing market conditions. They show a lot of flexibility, adaptability, and always stay one step ahead of their competitors. In addition, they have proven that their management teams can guide the organization through challenging times while focusing on the development and well-being of their employees. These companies stimulate innovation, talent, and diversity, making them true leaders in their sector.”
