The Flanders-China Chamber of Commerce and Flanders Investment & Trade are organizing an information session focused on the European immigration landscape and on managing international assignments. This event will take place at 12h00 on Tuesday 26 November 2019 at Flanders Investment & Trade, Avenue Roi Albert 37, 1000 Brussels.

Mr Alexis Pirotte, Senior Manager, Deloitte, will provide an update on the European immigration landscape and will take a deep-dive into the Single permit process, which has entered into force beginning of this year. He will provide the audience with practicalities to better manage the process especially in view of the long processing times and regional differences.

Mrs Pauline Six, Career Coach & Managing Partner, Bright Expats, will share her expertise on managing international assignments. While global mobility is common practice in companies, being aware of the challenges experienced by expatriates and having solutions ready allows everyone to work more efficiently. A new professional assignment can have a huge impact on one’s personal and family life. What is happening at home influences performance at work – she’ll share solutions proven to help solve some of the key challenges.
