History
Achilles Design was founded in 1994 by Jürgen Oskamp and Koen Elsen, two Belgian product designers who met each other during their time at university.
We registered as a SME portfolio service provider
Start of self-steering structure giving all employees full decision rights in business choices
Colruyt Group became a minority shareholder in Achilles Design, allowing us to expand even further.
Growth in expertise (45+ employees) as well as in business.
A self-steering company
How do you motivate people in an SME where there is no ladder to climb? By giving them a say in the company. Achilles Design has been a self-directed organisation since 2018 but that concept was not new by then. After all, pirates were already doing the same thing in 17th century. Every employee has the same voice. Whether they have worked here for 20 years, or started yesterday.
