Exploring Innovation at Port Oostende - where Maritime Industry meets Research & Development

Tuesday 10 December 2024

The BJA is delighted to invite you to an exclusive visit to Port Oostende, a key hub that plays an important role in connecting Belgium with Japan’s world-leading industries. This special event will offer an in-depth look at the port’s innovative infrastructure and its commitment to offshore wind energy and circular industry.

Port Oostende has long been a strategic gateway for prominent Japanese companies in Belgium, facilitating the smooth transport of goods essential to industries like automotive and manufacturing. The port is also playing a pioneering role in Europe’s transition to sustainable energy, particularly through its involvement in offshore wind farms. These wind farms are a vital component of Europe’s Green Deal, and we’re excited to share how they are contributing to a more sustainable future.

To gain a first glimpse of Port Oostende and its operations, you can view Port Oostende’s corporate film here.

Join us for an engaging afternoon of networking, discovery, and insight into how Port Oostende continues to build bridges between Belgium and Japan.
