One of our alumni recognized as FD Talent 2026

Feb 11, 2026

Guadaluna Chaer has been recognized as one of the FD Talents of 2026 – a special edition of Het Financieele Dagblad. It highlights fifty young people and exceptional talent who are transforming the world through their groundbreaking work.

Guadaluna is one of our alumni, and it has been a pleasure having her in our Next Valley program where her entrepreneurial talent truly stood out.

Supported by our Back Roger Ottenheym, she is now working on further scaling her ambitious and impactful idea: A robot that helps farmers remove weeds. With the use of AI, it can detect weeds and eliminate them with a laser. Therefore, reducing the need for chemicals and manual labour.

We’re excited to follow the next steps of LUXEED Robotics. As Frank & the Backs, we continue to support Guadaluna and her co-founder Georgy Kassab with brainstorming, networks and interesting opportunities.
