SOPHiA GENETICS was founded in 2011 by biologists who had a vision to create a technology that could make a positive and lasting impact on the world, using data for good. We’ve built a revolutionary technology platform, SOPHiA DDM™, that rapidly distills complex data into actionable insights, enabling clinicians, researchers, and biopharma to reshape the way that we diagnose and treat cancer and rare inherited disorders. The AI fueling our platform learns from the complex genomic and multimodal data provided by our community of users to create a collective intelligence over time. By using the power of data and AI, we are expanding access to data-driven medicine and enabling the patients of today to help the patients of tomorrow. Our science is driven by unrelenting passion for our mission to transform patient care by expanding access to data-driven medicine globally. We wouldn’t be able to achieve all that we have – and all that we will – without our people, who are driven by our shared purpose to ensure that every patient worldwide has equitable access to precision medicine. Our virtues are our behaviors we exhibit every day, and our mantra “We Care” is our driving force.

Forstrom is een onafhankelijke investeringsmaatschappij die in 2025 werd opgericht. We zijn er bij Forstrom van overtuigd dat veel Belgische KMO’s klaar zijn voor een volgende groeifase, maar vaak de juiste financiële, strategische en operationele ondersteuning missen om die stap te zetten. Ons team combineert diepgaande investeringskennis met hands-on ondernemerservaring, waardoor we niet alleen kapitaal investeren, maar ook actief meewerken aan strategie, structuur en schaalvergroting.
