Brussels New Generation
Redefining networking in Brussels.
Join a thriving community of over 200 young professionals in Brussels, with priority access to events, exclusive networking opportunities, workshops, training sessions, and more.
WHY WE STARTED
We're Brussels New Generation, a team of working professionals who grew tired of the same old networking grind. We set out to create something different—a community where career development seamlessly integrates into your lifestyle.
Our mission is simple: make career growth in Brussels accessible, enjoyable, and refreshingly non-traditional.
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT
We address the real struggles that young professionals in Brussels face, providing tools to help you establish yourself. From skills workshops and educational panels to fun networking events, we’ve got you covered!
We carefully select our venues, partners, and speakers to ensure our events don’t feel like work after work. We offer amazing experiences, connect you with the right people, and help you think strategically about your career.
