The Brussel Export 101% Designed in Brussels programme
The function Brussel Export fulfils for the design sector is that of supporting the international promotion and growth of a number of up-and-coming Brussels designers both economically and commercially. To ensure the success of that task, Brussel Export works with Designed in Brussels. The objective of the 101% Designed in Brussels programme is to allow the Brussels talents to participate in a number of international design fairs over the space of a year, in order to develop their international appeal and improve their export opportunities.
