What Hackages does

Hackages is a Brussels-based, privately held corporate training provider founded in 2016 that delivers custom upskilling programs to enterprise engineering teams and educational institutions. The company operates two product tracks: an AI Upskilling track covering AI-assisted coding, AI code review, CI quality gates, and reliable AI agent patterns, and a Core Stack Upskilling track delivering bootcamps in Angular, TypeScript, React, React Native, and Node.js. Delivery is anchored by named workshops such as the TypeScript 2-Day Bootcamp, the Angular 4-Day Enterprise Bootcamp, and the Building Reliable AI Agent workshop, alongside bespoke custom programs blended across both tracks.

The business model is professional services-led: pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, contracts are structured as multi-year engagements, and revenue is generated through direct enterprise sales rather than self-serve or marketplace channels. The go-to-market is a high-touch enterprise field-sales motion with 'Book a Call' and 'Book a Custom Program' CTAs. Since inception, Hackages claims to have trained 5,000+ engineers and delivered 300+ training programs across named clients including Rabobank, ING, Societe Generale, BIL Group, Capgemini, Kadena, NRB, and educational institutions in the Netherlands.

The company is small (11-50 employees) and has not disclosed any external funding, acquisitions, leadership changes, or partnerships, indicating organic growth to date. Founder Engone Nze Davy serves as Founder and Head of Engineering. Distribution is described as global via direct sales, though most disclosed enterprise logos are concentrated in Benelux financial services and Dutch education, suggesting the geographic footprint remains narrower than the global claim implies.
