In 2010, Bernard decided to combine his passion for game design and game programming by starting the first company dedicated to the development of prototypes using game technology: PreviewLabs, which is based in Wetteren, Belgium.

PreviewLabs turns ideas into interactive prototypes, enabling clients to explore multiple concepts. By using these prototypes, clients are able to play, test, and pitch any early ideas, ultimately help them to be more successful developing new products.

As PreviewLabs nears its tenth anniversary, Bernard has overseen the development of prototypes for over 200 different concepts, for clients including Walt Disney Imagineering, Google, and Yale University, but also a large amount of startups seeking to develop new products. In 2016, Bernard established PreviewLabs' US office, which is now based in Milford, Connecticut
