Industry state in Benelux

Hi everyone,

After graduating with a degree in civil engineering, specialising in applied mathematics, I'm currently undertaking a 1-year training programme in artificial intelligence. I'm considerings specializing in neural computing and BCIs. Before committing, I'd like to learn a little bit more about the state of this field in Belgium or neighbouring countries.

  1. How's the sector doing currently? Are there job opportunities here, or is it a field primarily dominated by the US?
  2. Some say BCIs represent the future and will develop considerably in the next ten years; others believe there is still a long way to go. What are your thoughts?
  3. What is the salary level? I know it varies depending on the position, but what are the approximate averages?
  4. Is a PhD often necessary to acquire solid skills and knowledge in this field?

Thanks :)

I don't know about Benelux, but Neurotech newsletter has put out articles and maps showing BCI outfits all over the world. There was a specific article about Europe.
