Antennex on the global stage: from LEVEL UP Award to CES Las Vegas & Silicon Valley
With a compelling pitch from CEO Anouk Hubrechsen on the LEVEL UP keynote stage, Antennex secured the LEVEL UP Award in September. In January, it was time to claim the prize: a trip to CES Las Vegas and the Bay Area with the 4TU delegation. This experience gave the promising Brabant-based startup a unique opportunity to showcase its innovative technology on a global stage and connect with key players in the tech industry.
Antennex: pioneering antenna testing solutions
Founded in 2023, Antennex is transforming the testing of wireless devices. Currently, around 30 percent of development and production time is spent on testing. Antennex has developed a multifunctional platform that significantly accelerates this process.
The platform delivers faster and more accurate wireless testing compared to existing technologies, helping to reduce time to market for critical wireless applications such as automotive radars and sensors.
The potential of the startup was also recognised by Jeroen van Glabbeek, CEO of CM.com and chair of the LEVEL UP Awards 2024 jury:
“The product from Antennex is outstanding, the pitch was strong, and they handled every challenging question from the jury with clarity.”
Exploring international opportunities
During CES Las Vegas, one of the world’s largest technology events, Antennex was featured at the Dutch Pavilion, where the team demonstrated its technology. The event created valuable opportunities to connect with investors and potential partners.
Following CES, the mission continued to the Bay Area, with visits to companies and institutions including Adobe, Intuitive and Stanford University. These visits provided insights into the innovation strategies of global leaders and offered valuable perspectives for startups aiming to scale internationally.
Winning the LEVEL UP Award gave Antennex not only recognition, but also direct access to international networks, strategic partners and new markets.
