Hospitality.brussels
The hospitality cluster supports innovative companies in accommodation and bed & breakfast, catering, transport, travel, event organisation, attractions and leisure providers.
A cluster is a network composed mainly of companies but also of research centres and public organisations. It is a true ecosystem that brings together all the players in a given sector or sub-sector.
To access each of these networks and enjoy their many advantages, you must become a member and therefore meet certain criteria.
The aim of these networks is to increase the competitiveness of companies and support their economic development through innovation.
These networks offer five types of service: networking and knowledge sharing, as well as business support, visibility and internationalisation.
By joining these networks, member companies can:
- expand their network and their opportunities for partnerships and exchanges
- increase their impact through the community
- pool their offers
- access free advice and strategic information
- increase their visibility
- develop new skills
- be inspired by good practice and innovative solutions
- access new markets, including internationally
- dialogue with public authorities
Via hub.brussels, the Region manages six clusters, in the following fields:
- sustainable construction and renovation,
- software publishing,
- audiovisual,
- medical devices and digital health,
- tourism, events and culture,
- the circular economy.
