Inetum and GitHub join forces to accelerate AI-driven software development in Belgium

Together, they aim to help organizations develop software faster, more securely, and more intelligently, using AI-powered tools like GitHub Copilot, integrated security features, and a strong focus on developer experience. The partnership covers implementation, licensing, and consulting across the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). 

GitHub is the world’s leading platform for agentic software development — powered by Copilot to build, scale, and deliver secure software. Over 180 million developers, including more than 90% of the Fortune 100 companies, use GitHub to collaborate, and more than 77,000 organisations have adopted GitHub Copilot. GitHub supports both open-source and private projects, helping organizations develop software more quickly, consistently, and securely. 

AI and Security integrated into one platform 

In this collaboration, GitHub serves as the central platform for managing the full development cycle, from idea to secure delivery. Inetum supports clients in integrating this platform into their operations step by step. The company guides migrations from existing systems like Azure DevOps to GitHub, combining the transition with training, coaching, and strategic advice. 

Thanks to GitHub’s suite of AI-powered tools, Inetum and GitHub bring AI, collaboration, and security together in a single workspace. The AI assistant ​GitHub ​Copilot takes over repetitive coding tasks, freeing up developers to focus on innovation. GitHub Advanced Security monitors code quality and alerts teams to risks such as vulnerabilities or data leaks. GitHub Packages allows teams to centrally manage and share software components, while GitHub Pages makes documentation and internal knowledge easily accessible. This enables developers to collaborate more efficiently in a secure and streamlined environment, delivering faster results with fewer errors. 

For both companies, this collaboration is a strategic move: Inetum strengthens its DevSecOps offering and its position as a Microsoft Cloud AI Partner, while GitHub gains a local implementation and advisory partner in Belgium to actively support organizations in transitioning to AI-native development. AI implementation and related security are top priorities for many companies, as highlighted in the recent Beltug Priorities Compass. 

Local partnership with global impact 

GitHub selected Inetum for its proven expertise in DevSecOps, local presence, and focus on AI-native development. 

Connor Douglass, Director Microsoft & Partner Solution Sales, Global Corporate at GitHub, highlights: “Inetum combines license management and consulting in one integrated approach. This makes them a reliable partner for organizations looking to modernize their software development. Their experience with GitHub, Azure DevOps, and GenAI applications ensures that clients can deploy our technology efficiently, with attention to productivity, security, and quality. Thanks to this expertise, we can help companies in Belgium accelerate their digital transformation.” 

Many organizations are currently transitioning from traditional DevOps to modern development environments where AI and security are standard. Inetum supports this shift by focusing on both technology and organizational development. They train teams, guide governance models, and support migrations through concrete programs like the ‘Quick Start Copilot Package’. 

Jouri Goos, Head of Consulting at Inetum, emphasizes: “As GitHub’s exclusive implementation partner in Belgium, our goal is not just to help companies make the switch, but to teach them how to fully leverage the platform. GitHub offers the most complete ecosystem for software development. From an end-to-end perspective, it includes everything relevant to our clients. Our mission is to help organizations modernize their software development by embracing the full GitHub suite, building secure, scalable, and AI-driven solutions.” 

Together, Inetum and GitHub are redefining software development in the AI era.
