About
SATUS stands for Science And Technology United for Startups. In Latin, "satus" also means "to sow" or "to plant", which is fitting: we help students go from an idea to something real, with the network and know-how to get there.
Our mission
SATUS exists because ambitious students in Leuven didn't have an easy way into the startup world. We give them the network, the events, and the know-how to actually build something.
We do that through three pillars: Learn, Connect, and Apply.
Our values
Ambition
We think big, and back students who want to build something that actually matters.
Community
The right people in the room matter more than any single event.
Excellence
We put real effort into everything we run, from events to mentorship.
