Such an evening is one of the best ways we can think of to celebrate French-American friendship, as La Maison Française has long been a cornerstone of intercultural cooperation. Indeed, through the quality of its hospitality and the diversity of its Paul Bocuse programming, this institution fosters the fundamental cultural principles that make our connection so unique. “ For years, La Maison Française has hosted lively intellectual panel discussions and debates, prestigious scientific events, business meetings and encounters. It is also a unique setting in which to celebrate the French-American heritage and our common history through commemorations of veterans and award ceremonies. To continue this great cultural journey, we must make sure we maintain the capacity to deliver quality programming in the best possible conditions. In other words, after 30 years of continuous use, La Maison Française must be modernized. In 2016 and 2017, the French government embarked on high-priority renovation and restoration work, revamping in particular the sound and video systems and undertaking major infrastructure and security projects.

  • Belgian Food Industry… the Best Kept Secret
    Belgian food industry… The best kept secret Belgian cuisine is one of the most highly praised in Europe. It is a well-deserved reputation too, placing Belgium among those countries where delicious food is not a hollow phrase but a veritable part of the country’s culture. Belgians love high-quality cuisine and enjoy sharing it with good company. It is, therefore, not surprising that this quality and reputation are also reflected in the food industry. Belgium is a ‘great food country’ in the heart of Europe. Aside from well-known Belgian products such as beer, ‘frites’ and chocolates, Belgium also boasts a wide range of highly successful companies. … A robust and fast growing industry The Belgian Food & Drink sector shows strong growth compared to other countries and industries. Between 2000 and 2010, the sector grew 47 % in terms of total turnover, which is significantly more than other industrial sectors. The Belgian food industry also grew faster compared to neighbouring countries like France and Germany. Exports of Belgian food represent a significant part of that growth. Since 2002, export increased with an average of 5 % per year. In 2012, export represented 52,1 % of total turnover, i.e. € 24,3 billion. As a result of that growth, employment in the food industry remained firm, and even increased despite the downward trend in employment experienced by other manufacturing industries. The Belgian food industry provides over 120.000 jobs. … A quality industry Optimal efficiency and products with superior quality and taste are key for the Belgian food industry. Employees are continuously trained to be ‘masters’ of quality management.
