A country can have the best laboratories in the world and still lose the strategic game.

That is the core warning in our new report “The Pharma Urgency for Belgium and Europe: Frontrunner or Decline?” by Anton Delbarre and Marc De Vos.

Europe’s problem is not capability but conversion: turning strong science into patient access, clinical evidence, production depth and anchored investment. Five insights from the roundtable: head to itinera.team

Belgium does not need another declaration of how strategic biopharma is. It needs a decision.

That is the message of “The Pharma Urgency for Belgium and Europe: Frontrunner or Decline?”, the new Itinera report by Delbarre and De Vos. It builds on our closed expert roundtable “Pharma in Belgium and Europe, Quo Vadis?”, held in Brussels on 2 March 2026 with business leaders, stakeholders and policy experts.

Nieuwe Whitepaper: Simplify Education

Vlaanderen behoorde bij de eeuwwisseling tot de wereldtop in onderwijs. Vandaag tonen tal van internationale onderzoeken een terugval. Het debat gaat dan meestal over eindtermen, curricula of de lerarenopleiding. In de nieuwe whitepaper Simplify Education kijkt Itinera naar een andere schakel: de schoolleider.

De centrale stelling volgens Visting Fellow Kristien Bruggeman: de kwaliteitscrisis is in de kern een governance-crisis. Onderwijskwaliteit wordt niet bepaald door de hoeveelheid regelgeving, maar door de vraag of de schoolleider voldoende tijd, bevoegdheid en decretale erkenning krijgt om onderwijskundig leiderschap op te nemen.

Why does Itinera do what it does?
Because good policy does not happen by itself. And leaders in the broad sense of the word deserve inspiration, expertise and sparring.

Major societal challenges require more than quick analysis or easy slogans. They require independent research, critical thinking and the willingness to turn ideas into concrete solutions.
That is what Itinera has been doing since 2006.

As an independent think-and-do tank, we bring together experts, entrepreneurs, civil society and policymakers. We examine what can be improved, develop policy recommendations and build bridges between knowledge and action.

Today, we focus on three clusters of major challenges for Belgium and Europe:
• a resilient society
• prosperity and welfare
• better governance

With one ambition: to contribute to lasting prosperity and well-being, today and for generations to come.

Want to read something interesting this summer? Head to our website to discover Julien De Wit’s latest inspiration document on how to make our society more resilient.

‘Becoming a more resilient society does not require policy measures alone; It also requires a kind of meta narrative that binds society together. I hope with the paper can provide both.’

The paper Itinera launches today is based on Julien’s recent book De Comeback Code (Ertsberg, 2026).

We look back on a splendid edition of our Itinera Summer Academy. Imagine being brought up to speed on today’s most pressing societal challenges while having the opportunity to debate solutions with peers.

That is what the Itinera Summer Academy was all about.

On the first day, our Summer Academy alumni attended Love Tomorrow, where our fellow Julien delivered a keynote to a broad audience. On the festival grounds, Itinera also hosted a Greenhouse where young leaders could network and brainstorm.

The second day was all about knowledge. Our fellows delivered presentations and workshops on geopolitics, economics, resilience, housing and democracy.

Yesterday, Itinera was present at the Love Tomorrow Summit.
Our Senior Fellow, Julien De Wit, took to the Core Stage to deliver a keynote on resilience that caught the interest of a large audience.
Meanwhile, at the In4Care Community Health Village, our Itinera House welcomed visitors for conversations on public policy and the challenges shaping tomorrow.
It sparked many engaging discussions and inspiring exchanges.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by.

Our co-CEO Marc De Vos recently spoke at the EU’s Annual EU
Budget Conference.

“There is no single person in Europe who thinks they can do it without Europe. [..] There is room for growth - there is even room for a quantum leap. We have to become more creative, more daring or we will not be competitive.”

Onze fellow Johan Albrecht gaf een interview aan De Tijd.

De highlights:
👉 In zowat alle landen worden ouderen met een complexe zorgvraag of een beperkte levensverwachting — denk aan palliatieve oncologiepatiënten — frequent opgenomen in het ziekenhuis om allerlei onderzoeken te ondergaan, waarna wordt vastgesteld dat geen verdere interventies nodig of opportuun zijn. Zeer belastend voor de patiënt, duur voor het systeem.

👉In Nederland wordt daarom geëxperimenteerd met proactieve communicatie voor oncologiepatiënten die het ziekenhuis verlaten: familieleden, huisartsen, mantelzorgers en thuisverplegers worden vooraf duidelijk geïnformeerd over hoe met bepaalde complicaties en symptomen best wordt omgegaan. De aanpak werkt. Het aantal heropnames daalde sterk, en wie toch werd opgenomen, verbleef aanzienlijk minder lang in het ziekenhuis. Johan mocht hierover input geven bij een artikel in De Tijd over ouderenzorg.

👉Ons complexe zorgsysteem is organisch gegroeid in een tijdvak waarin meer capaciteit aanbieden primeerde op systeemefficiëntie. Er is dus een aanzienlijk efficiëntiepotentieel — zoals overigens in elke grote organisatie, publiek of privaat. Wat echt telt, is het benutten van dat potentieel en tegelijkertijd meer ‘value for money’ bieden.

👉Het Nederlandse voorbeeld toont aan dat dit geen bedreigend verhaal hoeft te zijn. Deze vorm van efficiëntie is geen besparing óp zorg, maar betere zorg die ook nog eens goedkoper blijkt. De minst nuttige ziekenhuisopname is er een die de patiënt zelf liever niet had gehad.
