with purpose ecosystem studio
with purpose is a boutique innovation ecosystem building and real estate development consultancy,
founded by Brecht Lootens (MSC, MRE, he/him/his)
I help public and private stakeholders understand the innovation ecosystem around a building, cluster, district or even region – and translate this into a spatial, programmatic, and market strategy for real estate development.
placemaking for tech,
health & care,
education
with purpose helps where real estate, innovation,
and societal impact come together:
campuses, radical mixed-use developments,
and social infrastructure like education and care
