Practical information

The hybrid format of the Forum means attendants will have more options to actively participate and follow the event. Speakers and a limited number of participants are invited to participate at the Brussels venue, while a wider range of participants will join us remotely through a virtual interactive platform. The Forum will be livestreamed on social media, but active participation in the Forum, whether it be in-person or remote, will only be possible by invitation.  

Find out more about practical information below.
