Since November 2017 until May 2019 the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg was a contact point of the REACTIVATE programme, an initiative of the European Commission to promote intra-EU job mobility for people above 35.

For the duration of the programme, The Spanish Chamber of Commerce supported companies willing to hire or offer traineeship positions to EU citizen over 35.

  • Identification job offers access to job offers at European level, registration in events related to professional development, participation in selection processes.
  • Financial support: covering expenses related to job interviews, relocations, language courses, or the recognition of qualifications.
