Smarthub Flemish Brabant is the driving force behind numerous economical and societal initiatives in its region.

As an administrative level between the municipalities and Flanders, it is big enough to do a lot and small enough to mean a lot. It is often the silent force behind the scenes, providing solutions to challenges that transcend municipal boundaries with knowledge of the region.

As a pushing regional engine, the province of Flemish Brabant sets things in motion and creates space to flourish, move, experience and preserve what is valuable within the region.
