Talentguide named FTI Community’s newest member: unlocking skills, rethinking roles

Flanders Technology & Innovation (FTI) is excited to welcome Talentguide as its newest FTI Community partner. This partnership brings skills intelligence to the Community – using data to support people, skills, and sustainable growth.

Mapping skills using AI

Talentguide helps organizations gain deep insight into competencies using AI-powered analysis of unstructured data. Their platform translates employees’ daily work into structured skills profiles – not just based on roles, but on real experiences, behavior, and knowledge. This unique approach enables better performance management, talent development, and strategic workforce planning.

Talentguide’s SaaS platform creates detailed, human-centric skill profiles that power use cases from reskilling to job redesign and job crafting; “We don’t just match people to roles,” says CEO Filip Tack. “We provide the context to act – showing where skills can grow, how work can be reshaped to fit people’s energy and strengths, and which learning paths will have the biggest impact”.

What sets talentguide apart is their combination of precision and accessibility. Their SaaS platform can be used by both management and frontline workers - not just office roles.

A shared mission: collaboration, wellbeing, and smarter skills data

Talentguide works not only with companies but also with sector funds and HR service providers to accelerate outplacement, career guidance and reskilling.

Frank Hamerlinck, CEO of FTI, notes: “Talentguide will contribute to Elli, FTI's first use case focusing on workplace well-being. Together with their technology we aim to look at energy and stress levels in current roles - helping organizations redesign jobs or reallocate employees proactively, rather than reactively.”

“By mapping not just employees, but also roles and training pathways, we enable smarter matching and job design. We believe that’s key to preventing burnout and supporting sustainable careers,” says Filip.

Beyond the platform

Talentguide isn’t just a software company - they’re a young, diverse, and research-driven team that brings curiosity and creativity to the FTI ecosystem. As strong believers in data collaboration and privacy-by-design, they are also committed to empowering people to control and share their own skills profiles across applications.

“As a smaller player, you don’t always have the platform to grab the mic. The FTI Community gives us the chance to contribute to something bigger, and to help shape meaningful innovation as part of a shared mission”, concludes Filip.
