Astronef

What Astronef does

Astronef srl is a privately held Belgian digital transformation consultancy founded in 2001 and headquartered in Jambes (Wallonia). The firm operates as a technology-agnostic advisor, explicitly avoiding exclusivity with any vendor or platform, and delivers four core service lines: 360-degree audit, strategy definition, project management and accompaniment through deployment, and Agile/Scrum training. The offering is rounded out by custom digital solution development spanning business applications, e-commerce, B2B platforms, ERP, CRM, customer service tools, and e-learning, with integration into clients' existing systems.

The company serves large enterprises and mid-market organizations across diverse sectors; disclosed clients include Cora (retail distribution), Stûv (manufacturing), McCann Erickson (communications), and ING (banking). Engagement model is direct, expert-led, and quote-based, with multi-year contracts and services delivered by appointment from the Jambes office. The principal consultant, Laurent Remels, holds both Professional Scrum Master certification and approved-expert status from the Walloon Region (SPW) for digital transformation, which functions as the firm's primary regulatory credential.

Astronef has not raised external funding, has no disclosed subsidiaries or M&A activity, and does not list technology partnerships. Its go-to-market is relationship-driven and regional (Belgium/Europe), with marketing limited to a company website and the principal's LinkedIn presence. The most recent observable evolution of the service portfolio is the inclusion of AI opportunity identification within the audit offering, though no dedicated AI product, hire, or proprietary model has been disclosed.

Comparable because it delivers the same audit-strategy-deployment advisory and custom digital solution work that Astronef offers, but at vastly greater scale and geographic reach.
