There's no NACE code for "Circular Economy."
We find every member anyway.
Inoopa is the B2B data layer for trade organisations and industry federations in Belgium and the Netherlands. We map your industry by concept, not by NACE or SBI codes, across every company in our database. We cluster your members, surface the non-members you should be talking to, and tell you where each company sits in the value chain. Plus full contact enrichment, ready for outreach.

Map your industry by concept, not by code
Trade organisations build their value on knowing their industry better than anyone else. But NACE / SBI codes were written for statisticians, not for federations. They group your members alongside companies you'd never consider members. They miss the new entrants you most want to reach. They can't describe the concepts your industry actually organises around, circular economy, regenerative agriculture, biotechnologies, fleet electrification, AI infrastructure.
Inoopa works from concepts, not codes. Tell us what your industry is, in plain language, and we'll find every company in Belgium and the Netherlands that fits. Members and non-members alike. Clustered, value-chain mapped, contact-enriched, delivered.
Find what codes can't describe
There's no NACE code for "Circular Economy." Or "Industry 4.0." Or "Regenerative Agriculture." Or any of the concepts your industry actually mobilises around. Inoopa's semantic engine reads what every company in Belgium and the Netherlands actually does, across 200+ public and licensed sources, and matches it to your concept, your taxonomy, your federation's definition of who counts.
- Search by plain-language concept, no NACE / SBI codes required
- Cluster from your member list (internal DB) or the full BE + NL registry
- Each company placed in its closest cluster, 2nd and 3rd matches available
- Value-chain position detected: manufacturer, distributor, wholesale, service

5 NACE families
Federations see their members. Not their industry.
Trade organisations are built to represent an industry, but the data infrastructure underneath them lags decades behind the concepts they actually defend. NACE codes hide as much as they reveal, member databases stop at the membership boundary, and the contact data inside them is almost always too thin to act on.
- 01
NACE codes don't describe modern industries.
"Circular Economy" doesn't have a NACE code. Neither does "Industry 4.0," "Regenerative Agriculture," or "Fleet Electrification." The concepts your federation organises around, the ones that justify your existence to members, are precisely the ones the official taxonomy can't see.
- 02
You see your members. Not the whole sector.
Your internal database tells you who's already in. It doesn't tell you who's missing: the fast-growing newcomers, the foreign entrants, the adjacent players quietly shifting into your space. Without visibility on the full BE + NL registry, you can't measure your coverage, or your opportunity.
- 03
Member records are contact-light.
A company name and a generic info@ address don't make a sector dataset. To run a survey, mobilise members, route a newsletter to the right desks, or activate an advocacy campaign, you need named decision-makers with verified emails. Most member registries don't have them.
Six ways trade orgs turn Inoopa into sector intelligence
Every Inoopa deliverable is engineered for sector-level work: concept-based clustering, multi-source coverage, value-chain mapping, and per-company contact enrichment. Built for federations, sector skills councils, chambers and innovation agencies, across Belgium and the Netherlands.
Concept-based clustering (unique)
Inoopa works from concepts, not codes. Type "Circular Economy," "Industry 4.0," "Fleet Electrification", anything your sector actually organises around, and our semantic engine returns every BE + NL company that fits. No NACE code required, no taxonomy gymnastics, no manual scoring.
Multi-source coverage
Cluster from your own member database for internal benchmarking, or from the full KBO / KvK registry for the entire BE + NL sector view. Or both, overlay your members on the broader market and instantly see your coverage rate, your white space, and your competitive frontier.
Value-chain position detection
For every cluster, Inoopa detects where each company sits in the value chain: manufacturer, distributor, wholesaler, importer, service provider. Now your sector map isn't just a flat list, it's a structured supply-chain view your members and stakeholders can navigate.
Per-company contact enrichment
Each company in the cluster ships with a named decision-maker, CEO, COO, sustainability lead, procurement director, whatever role matches your campaign, plus a verified work email. Member surveys, advocacy mobilisation and event invitations finally route to the right desk.
Gap & white-space analysis
Bring any list of companies, your members, your customers, last year's event attendees, and Inoopa overlays it against the full addressable market in Belgium and the Netherlands. White spaces you don't yet touch, sub-sectors where competitors crowd, regions where adoption lags, recruitment opportunities surfaced from the gap. The view behind your next strategy paper.
Semantic market sizing
How big is your sector, really? Inoopa builds a market view from the semantic cluster up: number of companies, total employment, estimated turnover and gross margin, regional distribution, growth signals. The headline numbers your annual sector report needs, and the only methodology that holds when no NACE code describes the industry.
Auditable data. Defensible methodology.
Trade organisations are scrutinised by their members, their boards, their public stakeholders. The data underneath your sector reports needs to stand up to questions, about where it came from, how it was clustered, who's included and who isn't. Inoopa is built for that scrutiny.
GDPR-aligned data, by design
All company data is sourced from public registries (KBO, KvK, equivalents), licensed providers, and consented professional databases. Decision-maker contacts ship only with documented legal basis. Every dataset is GDPR-defensible from collection to delivery.
Semantic IDs you can audit
Each company's cluster attribution is traceable: we expose the keywords that produced its semantic identity and the distance to its cluster centroid. Members can ask why they were placed where they were, and you can answer with evidence, not black-box claims.
Federations and sector bodies already work with us
Industry federations, regional innovation agencies and government bodies across Belgium and the Netherlands use Inoopa to cluster their sector, map their value chain, and enrich their member data. The playbook on this page is already in production.
