Optimile nominated Trends Gazelle 2026

Ghent – 13 January 2026 – Optimile has been nominated in the Trends Gazelles 2026 ranking. This places the company among the fastest growing enterprises in Flanders, selected on the basis of objective growth rates. The nomination underscores Optimile’s significant momentum in a market in flux, i.e. the electric charging infrastructure market.

Trends will be awarding Trends Gazelles for the 25th time this year. Editors select companies in each province that excel in their value-added, headcount and cash flow growth. Gazelles are considered powerhouses of innovation and job creation and are an inspiring role model for other businesses.

Recognition based on numbers rather than promises

What sets the Trends Gazelles apart is the objective selection. Companies are not judged on the basis of plans, pitches or visions, but purely on their proven growth trajectory over several years. Optimile’s nomination thus confirms a trajectory of consistent, sustainable growth.

“This recognition confirms what we experience internally on a day-to-day basis,” Benoît Criel, CEO of Optimile, explained. “We are growing rapidly, but with a focus: on reliable software, on scalability and on partnerships that advance the charging infrastructure industry. The fact that we are recognized for this based on hard data makes this nomination all the more valuable. However, it is equally a recognition of our customers and partners who commit to our transition to greener mobility day after day.”

Expanding role in the charging infrastructure ecosystem

Optimile develops software solutions that enable companies to build their own EV charging system. The focus is on Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS), seamlessly integrating charging infrastructure into customers’ branding and operational processes. Available as a white-label platform or end-to-end product, the solutions target both B2B and B2C models.

In a market in which electrification is accelerating and the charging infrastructure is becoming ever more complex, Optimile is increasingly positioning itself as a software partner for scalable, future-oriented charging solutions. The company’s growth reflects the increasing need for flexibility, reliability and user-friendly systems within the charging landscape.

In dialogue with the sector at the 2026 Charging Infrastructure Congress

The nomination comes at a time when the loading infrastructure sector in Belgium and abroad is entering a new growth phase. Themes such as scalability, interoperability and professional management are becoming increasingly important. In this changing landscape, recognition as a Trends Gazelle acknowledges that Optimile is growing in line with the industry and is committed to future-ready solutions.

At the 2026 Charging Infrastructure Congress, where Optimile will be present as a sponsor, the team will engage with companies, governments and partners focusing on the role of smart software in building a reliable and future-proof charging infrastructure.
