The Flanders Investment & Trade agency promotes sustainable international business, in the interest
of both Flanders-based companies and overseas enterprises.
Whatever sector you are involved in, Flanders Investment & Trade will help you establish contact with
the Flemish companies you are looking for. This includes not only products or services you may be
sourcing, but also various types of business relationships, from joint ventures to technology transfers.
At another level Flanders Investment & Trade enhances Flanders’ position as the gateway to Europe
for inward investors. The agency identifies, informs, advises and supports overseas enterprises by
establishing production and research facilities, contact centers, headquarters, logistics operations and
the like in Flanders, the northern region of Belgium.
This broad focus on international entrepreneurship, involving outward trade as well as inward
investments, requires not only a thorough knowledge of Flemish economy, but also an extensive
network outside of Flanders.
We have just that for you. Do visit our website and discover our worldwide network. With over 75 offices
we are bound to be conveniently located near you, wherever you are.
