This mission is organized by the Belgian Foreign Trade Agency, in cooperation with the three regional agencies for the promotion of foreign trade: Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT), the Wallonia Export-Investment Agency (AWEX) & hub.brussels and the FPS Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation.
As part of the Belgian Princely Mission to Norway, hub.brussels and CEPANI (The Belgian Centre for Arbitration and Mediation) will organize
