Trade Mission VUB

Empowering VUB master's students and Belgian companies
to unlock their international business potential

About us

The Trade Mission is an annual initiative where master's students from different fields at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel conduct on-site market research, representing Belgian companies in emerging economies.


The missions include delegations of Belgian companies from diverse industries and sectors, represented by our students, who travel during three weeks to a chosen country to engage in business meetings, trade fairs, networking events and other significant events.

​

Supported by an experienced academic team and partners like Flanders Investment & Trade, The Trade Mission ensures in-depth research and valuable insights, driving global growth and collaboration for all parties involved.

"The Inisol mission to Kenya provided us with an exceptional opportunity to gain academic insights into the market, discover our potential in Kenya and understand the 'do's and don'ts' in a short period of time.

The Inisol mission is an excellent opportunity to take your first steps into a new market in a short time and with a limited investment."

Frisomat, Kenya, 2024
