Two principles guide our work

We are pragmatic

Our support is deliberately pragmatic and our daily services, regular lunch debates and newsletters provide information related directly to our members' concerns. We listen to our members' suggestions and adapt our workplan accordingly.

We are a platform for exchange

When you struggle with a problem, it’s likely that others have struggled with the same problem in the past. More often than not, a solution is inside our network.

What Members Say

Theodora Goulioti
CEO, BIG - Breat International Group

With FAIB and its members, we can learn about changes in Belgian law that affect associations and have a professional benchmark against which we can compare ourselves and our development as an international association based in Belgium.

Denis Pennel
Managing Director, WEC – World Employment Confederation

We particularly appreciate being able to reach out and learn from other similar organisations in terms of best practice sharing, ways of doing business, etc.

Liesbeth Switten
Secretary General, AIB – Association of Issuing Bodies

Interesting content, top speakers, great way to keep the association community informed!

Philippe Vangeel
Secretary General, AVERE – The European Association for Electromobility

As an international association established in Belgium, it felt obvious we should be part of FAIB.

Suzanne Zänker
Director General, A.I.S.E. – International Association for Soaps, Detergents and Maintenance Products

FAIB is a very useful source of information for international associations in Belgium. We especially appreciate FAIB webinars and some of the workshops on soft skills.
