Healthy business is now a European community

The Healthy Business community is excited to announce its recent expansion into Spain and Belgium! This is a critical step in our journey towards transforming the European business landscape, one healthy business at a time.

Sparked by a commitment to fostering healthier businesses across borders, we recently hosted our inaugural Healthy Business event in Brussels, Belgium. Over 60 HR leaders joined us at the heart of this vibrant city, collaboratively shaping the future of work.

Our event was graced by an ensemble of distinguished keynote speakers. This included Anouk Lagae (CEO, Accent), Siebe Hannosset, Michaël Verschaeve, Jean-Charles Samuelian, and Cedric De Vleeschauwer. With their diverse experiences and unique perspectives, they inspired thought-provoking discussions about the evolving dynamics of the workplace. We would also like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Ella Ameye for her energetic facilitation of these engaging sessions.

The Healthy Business community stands as a testament to the power of collaboration. It serves as a thriving research institute and a vibrant community, dedicated to connecting visionary business leaders and experts from different fields. Together, we strive to create an environment where innovative ideas and best practices are shared openly and freely.

Our goal is not just to build businesses that thrive economically but also to foster a holistic approach to business health. We believe that a business's health encompasses its culture, its employees' wellbeing, and its impact on society at large.

“By launching the Healthy Business in Spain we celebrate more than a mere venture; we ignite for a change. In an era where conversations transcend profits, companies are not just economic entities but societal architects. We are thrilled by the prospect of impacting Spain, not just as relevant players to the market but as catalyzers of conversations that matter”, said Irene Martínez, General Manager at Alan Spain.

And she added: “Gone are the days when success was measured solely in financial terms. Today, thriving businesses are those that genuinely care about the well-being of their greatest asset—their people. Our venture into the realm of the Healthy Business is a testament to the transformative power of empathy and foresight. In this new age, we understand that the well-being of our employees is a cornerstone of a prosperous and harmonious society”.

With this expansion into Belgium and Spain, Healthy Business is now a full-fledged European initiative. We are proud to be bringing our commitment to healthier businesses to new cities, new countries, and new business leaders across the continent.

We look forward to continuing our journey, exploring and shaping the future of work together. Stay tuned for more updates from Healthy Business as we extend our reach and deepen our impact.
