Submit your application for the Flanders International Business Awards
International entrepreneurship requires vision, perseverance, and synergy. That's why Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT) organises the Flanders International Business Awards (FIBAs). This year, an exporter, a startup, and a foreign investor will be put in the spotlight.
The 2025 FIBAs revolve around the theme of “being on the road". Since internationalisation is never a solo journey, FIT will this year travel with a mobile base to the winning companies to celebrate their international milestone together with their teams.
Why participate?
The FIBA’s offer more than just a trophy. They stand for:
- Recognition of international entrepreneurship.
- Visibility among customers, partners, and policymakers.
- Inspiration for other Flemish companies ready to spread their wings.
