On June 4th at 16:30, the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg will organize a webinar on “The appropriate word as a strategic instrument for international growth”, in collaboration with its member Lextrad.

In an increasingly connected world, where consumer behaviour has changed dramatically over recent years, companies dispose of new opportunities to maximize the spread and impact of their products or services.

However, if we do not meet our clients’ expectations with content that is suitably adapted to their profiles, we run the risk of not achieving our objectives at an international level. For effective persuasion, every word matters.

In this webinar, we shall discover the keystones for productive communication with our international clients, guaranteeing quality multilingual content, adapted to the cultural-specific needs of the target country, generating interest and attracting potential customers.

The webinar is free and will be conducted in English.

The Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg organize the Ordinary General Assembly meeting on the 24^th of June at 18:30.

The General Assembly is the statuary framework that sets up the members to participate, personally, in the daily life of the Chamber and contribute to its progress.

The coronavirus prevention measures motivate the adaptation of the Assembly’s meeting format, respecting the legal criteria established in the Companies and Associations Code.

The Board of Directors has estimated that the personal presence in the Assembly, with the appropriate aseptic and distancing measures, will be a proof of the social and economic normalization that we are all expecting. It is also understood that there will be members who will prefer virtual participation, due to reasonable precaution, or for any other reasons that prevent travel. The venue in Brussels for the Assembly will be determined shortly.

That is why we are working on the meeting assistance modality could be a combination: in person and/or virtual.

After the event, we will have the opportunity to enjoy some Spanish wine.
