Company Overview
Belfort is a Belgian technology startup and a spin-off from the KU Leuven university, specializing in encrypted computation. The company is developing a hardware accelerator and custom silicon chip designed to process data while it remains fully encrypted. This technology aims to overcome the performance and scalability barriers that have traditionally limited the use of encrypted computing, making it practical for real-time applications. Belfort's solutions are targeted at high-stakes domains such as finance, healthcare, national security, and blockchain, where data confidentiality is critical. In September 2025, the company announced a $6 million seed funding round led by Vsquared Ventures with participation from notable angel investors like Jeff Dean of Google and Naval Ravikant. The company maintains offices in Leuven, Belgium, and San Francisco, USA.
