This year, Shifting Economy Week returns for its 5th edition with a brand-new format: Shifting Economy Day is here, taking place on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, at Flagey.
Brussels continues its transition at a steady pace, even in everyday business! Guided by lucidity, dialogue, and action, this day offers a unique opportunity to collectively reflect not only on what is working but also on what raises questions.
In a volatile global context and amidst transitions that sometimes seem slow, the Brussels-Capital Region wants to take stock:
- Where do we really stand?
- What tangible evidence of progress exists?
- What trade-offs remain to be made?
- And most importantly: how can we move the needle?
Program highlights:
- Political and economic experts will outline the geopolitical and macroeconomic framework to better understand the balance of power.
- Specialists from regional administrations will provide an overview of the Brussels economy from statistical, sectoral, and territorial perspectives.
- Testimonials from Brussels residents who are driving the transition in their everyday entrepreneurial projects.
- Two major debates bringing together economic, trade union, academic, entrepreneurial, and nonprofit voices to discuss the scope of transformations needed.
This day is designed for everyone contributing to the transformation of the Brussels economy: professionals, institutions, networks, researchers, activists, companies… Your perspective matters, and so do your ideas.
