Practical info
The City: Brussels
This cosmopolitan city that loves good food lives life its way and expresses itself in a style very much its own: sometimes rebellious and mischievous, sometimes thoughtful and composed, but always very likeable. Despite its European dimension and despite all the different languages spoken on the corner of every street, Brussels is still inspired by a very “village-like” spirit. Of course, it’s well known for its Grand-Place, its Atomium, its Manneken-Pis, its Gueuze and its Kriek, its waffles and its chocolates… (don’t miss them!).
The Venue: The EGG
The EGG is a unique modular space housed in a post-industrial building, offering an incredible range of combinations and configurations. Situated in the heart of Europe’s capital city, a short distance from the South Station (SNCB, Thalys, Eurostar) makes The EGG the perfect location to be connected. It is also easily accessible by car and public transport.
