Join us as we look ahead to Belgium's Presidency 2024


On 1 January 2024, Belgium will take over the Presidency of the Council of the EU. Its presidency will coincide with the European Parliamentary Elections on 6-9 June, and the Belgium Federal Election on 9 June. 

Our line-up of expert speakers will analyse the upcoming Belgium Presidency and the impact of the European and national election on its priorities. We will explore:

  • What will be the key goals of the Belgium Presidency?
  • What will it realistically be able to achieve?
  • How will national elections affect the political priorities of the Presidency?
  • How can Belgium make its Presidency count?
  • What are opportunities for Belgian and European companies under the Belgium Presidency?

Hear from: 

  • Katrina Williams, former UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the EU

  • Julie de Groote, former Member of Brussels Parliament and President of Brussels Francophone Parliament

 

Please note that this event will be in-person only.
