What happens when someone can no longer speak, but still has so much to say?

At the 45th VVL Congress in Ghent 📍, organised by Vlaamse Vereniging voor Logopedisten, we had the opportunity to meet speech therapists and neuro-speech therapists who work every day with people facing severe communication challenges.

These conversations reminded us why we are building MindSpeaker BCI: communication is not just about words — it is about identity, autonomy, and human connection.

Their clinical insights help us make sure our technology truly supports real patient needs and fits into everyday care 🤝

We are excited to continue working together with clinicians to push the boundaries of assistive communication technology 🧠

🌍 What an incredible journey at hashtag .

We were honored once again to showcase MindSpeller BCI’s first medical device product, the MindSpeaker communication assistant for locked-in patients.

Hundreds of interested end-users and dealers from around the world stopped by our startup booth to experience the technology firsthand.

But what struck us most was the children — especially those with speaking disabilities caused by neural diseases. Their natural ability to “MindClick” was nothing short of inspiring.

💡 It brought us immense joy to witness the spark of hope it brought to families who need it the most.

See how a young locked-in boy, despite his uncontrolled movements, was able to master MindSpeaker's onboarding games with the MindClick wearable in just minutes.

👉 Don't forget to follow our Youtube channel — we’ll be sharing more video highlights from the exhibition in the coming weeks.

🎙️ MindSpeakerBCI.com in the Belgian Financial Times: Don’t Let Your Voice Be Silenced!

Imagine losing the ability to speak—forever. For over 450,000 people worldwide living with ALS, this is their reality, with approximately 120,000 new diagnoses each year. Around 30% of these patients lose their speech early on, and for the remaining 70%, it’s only a matter of time.

In Belgium alone, 1,000 people live with ALS, and another 200–250 face this devastating diagnosis annually. Losing one’s voice often means losing a part of one’s identity—an unbearable reality for many.

ALS is not the only condition that can take away your voice. Neurological diseases, strokes, or accidents can lead to similar challenges. When speech is lost, a part of one’s identity often goes with it.

Thanks to voice banking and voice cloning technologies, it’s now possible to preserve your voice before it’s too late. These tools allow people to retain their unique vocal identity, communicate with loved ones, and reclaim their sense of self even when speech becomes impossible.

At MindSpeakerBCI.com, we’re committed to providing innovative solutions for those at risk. In just a few minutes, you can bank your voice for life—for free. Our technologies, including voice banking, eye-tracking tools, and brain-computer interface wearables, ensure that no one has to face a future without their voice.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Preserve your voice today. Visit MindSpeakerBCI.com to learn more and get started.

Your voice isn’t just how you communicate—it’s a part of who you are. 🎙️

📰 French-speaking media outlet, RTBF, today featured MindSpeakerBCI.com in a 5-minute news segment on Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs). 🧠💡
Our co-founders, Dr. Arno Libert and Prof. Marc Van Hulle, showcased MindSpeaker, our non-invasive wearable BCI solution that empowers users with innovative assistive communication tools—no surgery required. 🙌

While the spotlight often falls on invasive brain implants like those from Neuralink, there’s growing concern over the ethics, transparency, and safety of such approaches. Large-scale implantation strategies raise critical questions about risks like brain infections and long-term consequences.

At MindSpeakerBCI.com, we believe in advancing BCI technology in a way that prioritizes user safety, accessibility, and transparency. We’re thrilled to see the growing interest in wearable solutions that offer groundbreaking capabilities without invasive procedures.

Let’s spark a conversation about the future of BCIs—one that is ethical, safe, and empowering for all. What are your thoughts? 🤔👇
