Share your idea

By sharing your solution, you help us align innovation initiatives with your daily work and challenges. Every submission is evaluated by the Innovation Board to ensure we invest in the tools that create the greatest value for our personnel.

While we value external innovation, all submissions from industry or external partners now require an internal Defence Champion (a sponsor with a @mil.be email address). If you have a brilliant concept or ready-to-use solution, connect with your contacts within the Belgian Defence.

Need some guidance on how to pitch your idea? Check out the tips and tricks below the form or click the button at the bottom of the page. If you haven’t found a solution yet but want to highlight a specific operational hurdle, a problem submission form will be coming soon.

Need guidance in your innovation journey?

Innovation is rarely a straight line; it is an iterative journey where revisiting previous steps is a natural part of the process. If you feel stuck or need guidance, we are here to support you. Below, you can download our Innovation Process Visual and the Ideation Canvas used in our official training sessions. These are provided as a single download containing English, Dutch, and French versions, designed to help you structure your thoughts, clarify your needs, and transform your identified challenges, or those from the pathways above, into truly relevant and innovative solutions.
