Why choose Brussels?
Because Brussels is a city for businesses and “bons vivants”, a city that dares to lead and dares to live.
Brussels is Europe’s capital of connections…
Brussels is accessible from everywhere, and we have unprecedented access to European decision-makers and opinion leaders—the policymakers and innovators shaping what’s next for Europe and the world.
…and the Europe’s capital of conviviality.
Our diversity, inclusivity and quality of life are beloved by global talent who live here and enjoy an affordable city rich in art, culture and cuisine.
