Around 100 companies in Wallonia and Brussels will open their doors to the public this Sunday for Enterprise Discovery Day.
Throughout the day, craftspeople, shops, SMEs, family businesses, industrial firms and innovation companies will welcome visitors to showcase their expertise, including in sites that are usually closed to the public.
Organised by the Sudinfo media group in partnership with Walloon employers’ federation AKT and the Walloon Region, the event aims to highlight the richness and diversity of the Walloon and Brussels economy.
