Expat Event 2023

Our annual Vlerick Expat Event is taking place on 14 September. You’ll get valuable insights to share with your organisation. And you’ll have opportunities to exchange thoughts and ideas with Vlerick programme advisors – and connect with like-minded international professionals.

Today’s organisations are dealing with rapid technological advances – as well as tackling overlapping social, economic, political and environmental crises. With so much uncertainty, how can they keep their focus on their long-term strategic goals, like social and environmental sustainability?

In her keynote speech, Professor Andreea Gorbatai will share:

• Why diversity matters for you, your company and our future
• How a well-planned diversity strategy can help your company thrive
• Evidence-based approaches for managing diversity initiatives for your company
