Joris Vinckx created Tornado Belgium on 1st April 1990 at Rillaar with a starting-capital of 750.000 BEF. After 2 years a fundraise of 1 million BEF was achieved. Its core business was to distribute Tornado modems for Belgium and Luxembourg. This product range was extended with computer accessories and scanners from Primax, Tamarack, Addison and Logitech.In the beginning of 1995, Tornado Belgium took a participation in Route 64, that offers a wide range of ISDN solutions with partners such as AVM, Motorola and Gandalf. In June 1995, Tornado Belgium moved to its own new building located at the industrial site in Aarschot. At that time, Tornado Belgium integrated Internet solutions in his datacom offer. Within two years Tornado became one of the TOP 3 Internet Service Providers in Belgium. With 27 POPs (Point of Presence) and 5 International links, Tornado Internet guaranteed a fast ride on the Internet Highway.
