Managed offices in Brussels: which areas?

The European Quarter & Léopold: at the heart of the EU institutions, this is where managed offices are most concentrated. Ideal for public affairs, consultancies, federations and international organisations.

Avenue Louise: the chic, international business corridor.

The North Quarter & Gare du Midi: very well-connected office hubs (Midi = Eurostar and Thalys to Paris and London).

As the capital of Europe, Brussels is ideally placed to reach the whole continent, in a bilingual (FR/NL) and highly international environment. Its flexible office market is mature: the perfect base for a European expansion.
