Exclusive interview with Valerio SCOTTI for the new Kompas edition of KNACK dedicated to Innovation. 

Valerio SCOTTI, Key Account Manager at Leyton Benelux, was interviewed in the Kompas edition of June 24, 2026, of KNACK magazine, a Belgian Dutch-language weekly magazine that covers local news, politics, sports, business, employment, and community events.

In this interview, he discusses the current context of the sector, the challenges companies must face, and the vision our group upholds to sustainably support its clients and partners. 

In an environment marked by economic instability and increasing global competition, companies must rethink their strategy to maintain agility and competitiveness. 

Valerio SCOTTI answers the main questions on: 

  • How can we innovate sustainably in the current context? 
  • What levers exist at the Belgian and European levels to finance innovation? 
  • What are the most common mistakes when applying for funding? 
  • How can the expertise of Leyton’s teams address current challenges? 
  • What are the impacts for companies? 

Companies today not only need financing, but also certainty” — Valerio SCOTTI, Key Account Manager at Leyton Benelux 

In this thematic supplement, KNACK magazine gives the floor to various stakeholders involved in innovation within different Belgian industries. 

We warmly thank the KompasMedia BE teams for this spotlight.
