Triple B acquires PULSE B, a newly developed office property in central Antwerp, secured by an 18-year lease to Flemish government agency VDAB.
ANTWERP, Belgium, 30 October 2026. Triple B International, an international family investment group focused on responsible, long-term value creation, announces its first real estate acquisition in Belgium with the purchase of PULSE B, a high-quality office building at Copernicuslaan 3, Antwerp.
Developed by Ghelamco, the property comprises approximately 9,350 sqm of offices and ancillary spaces and 47 private parking units. Located in Antwerp’s Kievit business district, close to Antwerp Central Station, the asset benefits from excellent connectivity to major Belgian and European destinations.
The building is fully leased to VDAB, the Flemish government’s public employment and vocational training agency, under an 18-year fixed lease. The long-term tenancy provides predictable, indexed income in line with Triple B’s wealth preservation strategy.
Thomas A. Bata, Director of Triple B International
“We are delighted to take over this state-of-the-art property in the heart of Antwerp. Our partnership with Ghelamco has been highly professional and collaborative throughout, and it has been a real pleasure to deliver our first development project in Belgium together.”

These are precisely the fundamentals we look for in our real estate investments.”
