Business environment
Brussels' tax system is flexible
Flexible taxes for new investors: Belgium’s tax policy is in line with other European countries and offers attractive R&D incentives.
It's just common sense
The capital of Europe has everything a company needs: an open economy, business incentives and services, a strong infrastructure, and a talent pool of multilingual, highly skilled professionals in all sectors. Being the world's 2nd most cosmopolitan city and located at the crossroads of Western European cultures, this is actually not very surprising.
But Brussels is also a very pleasant place to live and a family-friendly environment blessed with a welcoming heart. A business city teeming with opportunities, but also a relaxing home, ideal for enjoying life’s sweeter side. Lying at the crossroad of Western Europe's cultures while being home to so many citizens from all over the world definitely makes Brussels a human-sized global city where local culture and cosmopolitism get along perfectly.
Discover why Brussels is right for your business, for your family, and for you.
