Opening Speaker
We are thrilled to announce Commissioner Kadri Simson as our opening speaker!
Her presence at this momentous milestone for the Flexible Demand Management Industry is of utmost importance, when reflecting on the crucial EU regulatory framework already established. Together, we need to urge for rapid implementation of all EU provisions on consumer empowerment, to grasp the benefits for a cost-effective decarbonisation.
The venue
The enchanting La Bourse is an impressive structure steeped in history and recently renovated to become a vibrant hub for leisure and culture. Nestled in the bustling heart of Brussels, this architectural gem pays homage to the Belgian heritage while offering an immersive experience into the country’s rich past.
Originally conceived as the epicenter of financial markets, La Bourse now stands as a testament to the industrial glory of 19th-century Belgium. Its meticulous restoration showcases exquisite sculptures by the renowned Rodin, adding an aura of artistic elegance.
From the captivating depths of its cellars to the breathtaking vistas of its rooftop terrace, La Bourse invites you to explore its transformation, which was realised thanks to a substantial EU funding of 18 million euros. This is yet another proof of the commitment to preserving this emblematic cultural and architectural heritage of Belgium whilst fostering environmental preservation and sustainable economic growth.
Experience the allure of La Bourse firsthand with us, as we gather for an unforgettable event in this unparalleled setting.
