Elegnano attends the Belgian Economic Mission to the West Coast

In the first half of October, Elegnano participated in the Belgian Economic Mission to the West Coast in the presence of Her Royal Highness Princess Astrid of Belgium. Ten days in San Francisco and Los Angeles were jam-packed, including making connections with entrepreneurs, designers, and innovators from both continents, learning from the many panels, round tables, and talks on topics like AI, leadership, market trends, economic opportunities, and sustainability, and Elegnano founder, Katrien Herdewyn, speaking at the BelWest morning event in LA.

Over 500 Belgian entrepreneurs participated in the Mission to California to establish and expand business in the American Market, the 4th biggest trading partner for Belgium, right behind our neighbors Germany, France, and the Netherlands. The motto of the mission was "Belgium is open for business." And so is Elegnano! We are grateful for all the Belgian and American connections we made during the mission and look forward to starting to collaborate with our new clients and partners, as well as further discussing the opportunities and doors that opened.
