🏰 Château de Lavaux-Sainte-Anne

🌍 67 countries represented. Over 260 participants. A day out of time.

The 4th edition of The Economic Diplomacy Day took place on Saturday, June 1st in a setting as exceptional as it is iconic: the Château de Lavaux-Sainte-Anne.

Organized by the Consular Corps of the Province of Namur, this unique event in Belgium brings together ambassadors, entrepreneurs, and public and private decision-makers each year in a spirit of dialogue, exchange, and collaboration.

🤝 A day of meaningful encounters

The morning featured an 80 km economic rally across the province, uniting diplomatic delegations and their partners in a dynamic and friendly atmosphere.

At each stop, participants discovered Namur’s economic fabric and formed concrete connections.

In the afternoon, the castle park turned into a true crossroads of cultures.

In a lush and friendly environment, conversations flowed over drinks under tents set up for the occasion — a moment of informal diplomacy, openness, and forward-looking dialogue.
