On November 5^th and 6^th 2026, from 9:00 to 12:00, the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg organise an online training on “Content Marketing Mastery: Generative AI, SEO and Content Strategy”, in collaboration with Philippe Schifflers, Digital Marketing Consultant and Online Instructor.

Participants learn how to create SEO-optimized blog posts, newsletters, social media content, high-converting landing pages, and impactful images and videos, while leveraging Generative AI tools to improve efficiency, quality, and performance.

Content marketing and content creation have become essential strategies for companies that want to grow their visibility and build lasting relationships with their audience. By creating and sharing valuable, relevant content, brands can attract attention, nurture trust, and strengthen engagement. When trust is established, it becomes significantly easier for followers to turn into customers and, ultimately, advocates for the brand.

The training will be delivered over two days, with sessions of three hours each, and will take place in English.

The Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg, in collaboration with the Círculo Cultural Español Antonio Machado, is organising on Tuesday 12 January 2027, from 18:30 to 19:30, the conference “De la Filología a la inteligencia artificial: qué son las humanidades digitales” (From Philology to artificial intelligence: what are the digital humanities?), given by Dr Elena Fernández Fernández, to be held at the Círculo’s premises (Grand-Rue 72, 1st floor, L-1660 Luxembourg).

Dr Fernández Fernández studied English Philology at the University of Salamanca and earned her PhD at the University of California, Berkeley, before moving from the humanities to data science. In this outreach talk she will look back on that path and explain what the digital humanities are: a discipline that applies data analysis to the study of texts, the press and culture.

Drawing on real examples, she will show how some of the most widely used text-processing algorithms in the field work, such as information retrieval, sentiment analysis and topic modelling, and how they turn thousands of press articles into data that can be compared over time and across countries. She will also present the results of GLOTECH, the project she led with a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship from the European Commission, which uses the press to study the role of technology in processes of modernisation and globalisation.

The talk will be held in Spanish and will close with a Q&A session. It is aimed at a non-specialist audience: no prior technical knowledge is needed.

Free entrance, compulsory registration. Places are limited, with priority for members of the Chamber and of the Círculo Antonio Machado.
