SustAIn.brussels - Shifting companies to think more digital & sustainable

Do you and your company have digital ambitions and aim for sustainable impact? Then the SustAIn.brussels launching event is where you need to be! SustAIn.brussels is the single point of contact for companies that want to grow their digital and sustainable ambitions.

The road to successfully applying digital technologies can be a rocky one:

  • How to choose and test technology solutions?
  • What skills do you need to acquire?
  • What type of investments are needed and where can you find those?
  • How do you establish local or international partnerships? 
  • How do you do this in a sustainable way, so that it positively impacts our society and environment?

SustAIn.brussels is the new European Digital Innovation Hub in Brussels, created with the support of the European Commission and Innoviris and coordinated by Sirris, Agoria, Becentral VUB, and ULB. Our mission is to be the single point of access for companies to sustainable digital innovation with a focus on AI and other emerging technologies.

Join us at this launch event in the heart of Brussels at Becentral, which hosts a new AI Experience Center and meet the “who’s who” of public and private actors in Brussels who can support your digital and sustainable challenges.
