Elneo is a family-owned company from Liège active in compressed air (the kind that powers buses, operates operating theatres or heavy industry, for example). A company in a niche but essential sector, passed down from grandfather to father, then to son, and now led by Jonathan Bouhy. The latter is driven by a conviction: “A company cannot be built without the people who make it thrive.”
Elneo's uniqueness lies in its bold participative management: in 2024, employees were able to become shareholders of their company! This is a rare initiative in Wallonia, relaunched in June 2025 by the company, and it has met with great success, particularly due to the rapid and sustainable growth of the business.
At the same time, we launched a public relations campaign to raise awareness of the initiative. This information was very well received by the media, with 13 results in 12 different media outlets, including La Libre, La DH, L'Avenir, Paris Match, etc.
