We want to change
the way we trade

Why we exist‍
B2B commerce has a significant impact on our lives. It ensures that we can work, eat and enjoy life. Yet it does not reach its full potential. The trade industry is a collection of industries that work together in different areas, but everyone minds their own business regarding innovation.

AREA42 wants to improve trade with you and make solutions for a fluid and risk-savvy trade environment. We're a venture builder specializing in B2B trade and run the most inclusive TradeTech community globally.

‍We go where no wo/man has gone before!
‍We're working hard to make trade future-proof.
No blah blah, but real and sustainable impact for our and future generations.
‍
Sharing knowledge
Our TradeTech community gathers intelligent and pragmatic people who want to move forward. Together we’ll reinvent trade and create innovations that benefit the entire trade ecosystem.

Solving big issues
We’re partnering with others to tackle problems too complex to fix alone (a.o. World Economic Forum, Fintech Belgium, La Place Fintech). 

Solving trade problems with TradeTech
We solve real B2B trade problems with TradeTech, turning TradeTech solutions into reality. TradeTech is a new industry that leverages technology to improve the trade of goods and services.

Laser-focused on what matters most
There are a lot of aspects when it comes to TradeTech, but we believe the Trade Finance Gap of 1.7 trillion dollars deserves our full attention. For years we’ve been building knowledge on the financial part of TradeTech, but we’re open to looking at other facets too.

Putting our money where our mouth is
Finding new, alternative ways to create business opportunities is what we love. With the help of our investors and our parent company, Credendo, we can take them to the next level.
