SME e-wallet
Brightest NV is registered by the Flemish Government as a service provider for advice and training.
SME e-wallet discontinued: what does this mean for you?
The Flemish Government has decided to discontinue the SME Portfolio. The budget for 2026 has been exhausted as of October 15, 2026. This means you can no longer submit new applications, not even for training programs in 2027.
Do you already have an approved application?
It remains valid. You can still participate in and complete the training or consulting services until December 31, 2027. So be sure to schedule your session in a timely manner. We’d be happy to help you find a suitable date.
What’s next?
Training remains a smart investment, and the costs remain tax-deductible. To ease the transition, as an SME, you’ll receive a 10% transition discount on training courses from The Bright Academy that you book before December 1, 2026.
