About Arne Vandendriessche
Arne Vandendriessche is based in Belgium. According to Crunchbase, he studied European politics (2001 to 2005) and then took a Master of Law in economic law (2005 to 2009), both at Ghent University.
TheOrg lists his early career as marketing manager at Centric in Belgium (2010 to 2014) and a role as spokesman for a Belgian federal minister. Crunchbase lists him as CEO of Signpost Belgie from March 2018 and as chairman of Hangar K from January 2022.
Press coverage of the Spotable round in September 2026 describes him as the former CEO of Signpost and the recently appointed CEO of Get Driven.
Public information on his angel activity is limited. He appears in two announced rounds. One is the Tinrate seed round, where he is named among Belgian founders and operators who backed the company, alongside Steve Rousseau, Helena Brutsaert and Belfius. Tinrate runs a platform for booking paid calls with people who have niche expertise. The sources do not give the round size or the year.
The other is the Spotable seed round in September 2026. No public source gives his check size, total number of investments or any fund.
His one AI round on the Lounge deals desk is the Spotable seed, announced in September 2026 at $4.5M (EUR 4.0M). Spotable is a Ghent company founded in 2024. It uses geographic data and AI to turn a building address into a 3D model of a roof or facade. It then calculates measurements and quantities and generates quotes for construction contractors.
The round was arranged by the investment broker The Harbour. Other investors named include Jonas Dhaenens of team.blue, Christophe Morbee of NewSchool.vc, and the family office of Hilde Cloostermans and Philip Corens. Spotable says it will use the money to build the product and expand into France, Germany and the United States. It reports 350 customers, mostly in Belgium and the Netherlands.
He has not published an investment thesis, and his check size is not public. The two rounds found are both seed-stage companies in Belgium, one in construction software and one a consumer-facing expertise marketplace. These two examples are not enough to describe a formal focus. His operating background is in business software, education technology and device leasing, through Signpost and Get Driven.
